Told in a series of alternating flashbacks, Beechwood Park is the story of twins Cait and Abby-one fated to destroy the other-mirroring the downfall of Cain and Abel. Abby has always lived in the shadow of her violent sister Cait. Growing up under the oppressive yolk of their religious grandmother, Estelle, the girls are driven apart by jealousy and fear, fueled in part by their poverty and the unspoken secret of their illegitimacy. When Abby finally leaves small town Kansas behind, she sets out for New York City and immediately finds herself swept up in the cultural revolution of the 1960's. From the Greenwich Village folk scene to the Civil Rights Movement to the violence and instability of Vietnam protests, Abby begins to forge a life for herself with her revolutionary boyfriend, Blake. But hope quickly turns to violence, drugs and instability. As anti-Vietnam protests roar through college campuses across the country, Blake and Abby find themselves plunging headfirst into the dangerous underworld of anti-establishment counterculture, until a tragic accident forces Abby back into her sister's life. When finally confronted with her family's darkest secrets, Abby sets out to find her father. But what awaits her in Beechwood Park? Will Abby find the reunion she's always longed for, or something more sinister? It seems only her sister, Cait, truly knows.

Raised as Hunters in a hidden counterinsurgency society in the late nineteenth century, nineteen year old Welsh twins Carys and Cadeyrn Llewelyn have led brutal, unforgiving lives filled with heartbreak and pain. As the only female Hunter, Carys has proven her place among the males, but not without a terrible price. And while Carys is as self-sacrificing as ever, it's up to Cadeyrn to make sure he's there to pick up the pieces. When a mysterious Hunter from London beckons the twins and their friends to the city to eliminate a target, self discoveries are made, relationships are tested, and wounds are reopened. _____ "Cadeyrn, everything we have been through, everything we have sacrificed has come down to this moment. Steamboats and trains make travel exponentially faster. Industry has become the crown jewel of the country. Stringent moral codes are disintegrating. Everything that we used to take for granted has been distorted. Amidst all of this revolution, I see women restlessly gazing out their windows. They want a share of this exciting, new world. I have been privileged to have access to it and I do not want to be the only one...but I do not know if I am the right person to bring about this change," Carys whispered dejectedly. Cadeyrn sat on Carys's bed and enveloped her in a brotherly embrace. "Do not say such things about yourself. You are as strong and determined as Mam was." Carys gave Cadeyrn a watery smile and he returned to his own bed. Carys turned her body around so that she was facing the window. The curtains were pulled aside so she could see the stars littering the night sky. The gentle slopes of the hills stretched as far as the eye could see and the darkened shadow of the village was a speck off in the distance. At this breathtaking sight, Carys finally let the tears fall. Each teardrop held her fears, her anger, and her sadness. Why would one need to find refuge in the shadows if there is nothing to hide? Only in a perfect world.

"Whether you like it or not, Chloe, you're a witch. And you'd sure as hell better start acting like one." Long ago a prophecy told of a great danger that would annihilate the twelve witches that took up residence in New Salem. In order to protect their home, the ancient coven had to summon the power of the demon Raoul, a nasty thing that fed on the lives of whoever was willing to strike a deal with him. He helped them in exchange for their lives, but instead of going back to the other side, his spirit stayed in New Salem. . . Enter Chloe Montgomery. With her father getting a new job, Chloe is uprooted from her home in Greenfield and moved to the creepy little town of New Salem. Upon her move into the neighbourhood, though, she starts to notice strange things, specifically about the eleven teenagers who live in surrounding houses. Referred to as "The Group" by her fellow classmates, the eleven kids are anything but normal. They're the coven destined for the prophecy. But a coven is made of twelve, and they want Chloe to be the final piece. . . *THIS STORY IS STILL A ROUGH DRAFT. NOTHING HAS BEEN EDITED.*
