~ Book Synopsis ~
Ella and her son survived her ex-husband's drunken wrath. They are starting a new life in a new town, Stutter Creek. She's even met a real man. A gentle wild life biologist named Chet Boone. But now, her ex has been released from prison early. Is that him driving past their new house late at night? Is he the one causing the strange sounds and flickering lights? Can they survive a second round with a madman?
~ Excerpt ~
It was after midnight when Nick appeared at his mom’s bedside like a little phantom, still clutching his football pillow. His hair stuck up in little whorls and corkscrews.
“Something woke me,” he said. “Sounds like someone walking around, up there.” He indicated the ceiling with a thrust of his chin.
Ella came awake quickly, as only a worried parent can. “Let’s go take a look.” She climbed out of bed.
“You go,” Nick said. “I’ll wait here.” He sat on the edge of her bed.
She wanted to say okay, just stay here and let Mama handle it, but she was afraid if he didn’t sleep in his own room tonight, on their very first night, he might expect to sleep with her from now on.
“I need you with me,” she said. “As backup.”
Nick sighed. “Okay...but what if it’s a ghost? It’s an old house, it’s probably haunted.”
