Fülszöveg



Every cemetery has a story. Every grave, its secrets. Enter the world of Amanda Stevens's Graveyard Queen series--where forbidden passion and secrets from the past are as restless as the ghosts--in the series prequel novella, The Abandoned.

There are rules for dealing with ghosts. Too bad Ree Hutchins doesn't know them.

When her favorite patient at a private mental hospital passes away, psychology student Ree Hutchins mourns the elderly woman's death. But more unsettling is her growing suspicion that something unnatural is shadowing her.

Amateur ghost hunter Hayden Priest believes Ree is being haunted. Even Amelia Gray, known in Charleston as the Graveyard Queen, senses a gathering darkness. Driven by a force she doesn't understand, Ree is compelled to uncover an old secret and put abandoned souls to rest--before she is locked away forever....


Én és a könyv

Minden temetőnek meg  van a saját története. Mindegyiknek a saját titka. Lépj be Amanda Stevens  Sírkertek királynője (Graveyard Queen) sorozatának világába, ahol a múlt tiltott szenvedélye és titkai ugyanolyan nyughatatlanok, mint a szellemek - a sorozat bevezető novellája az The Abandoned (csak angolul). 


Ha szellemekkel  kezdesz vannak szabályok.  Sajnos, Ree Hutchins nem ismeri ezeket.
Amikor kedvenc betege egy magán elmegyógyintézetben elhalálozik, a pszichológus hallgató Ree Hutchins meggyászolja az idős asszonyt. De egyre nyugtalanítóbb a növekvő gyanúja, hogy valami természetfeletti árnyékként követi őt.
Az amatőr szellemvadász Hayden Priest elhiszi Ree-nek, hogy valami kísérti őt. Még Amelia Gray, akit Charlestonban a Sírkertek királynőjeként ismernek, ő is érzékeli a sötétség növekedését. Érthetetlen erők késztetik  Ree-t  egy régi titok feltárására, hogy a magányos lelkek nyugalomra leljenek -, mielőtt örökre elzárnák ....



Mondhatnánk, hogy a kezdetek kezdetén. Ez a történet nem Ameliáról szól, ő csak egy mellékszereplő. 
Ree Hutchins önkéntes a Milton H. Farrante pszichiátrián, majd furcsa körülmények között megismerekedik Hayden Priest amatőr szellemvadásszal.
A megismerkedésük véletlen vagy a sors akarta így? 
Rejtélyes halálestek, egy titkos társaság. Soha nem tudhatod kiben bízhatsz. 
Vajon mi köze lehet ehhez egy szellemnek? 
Érdemes elolvasni. Inkább hozható kapcsolatba a sorozat első részével, időrendben előtte történik, de bármikor elolvasható. Apró háttér információkat kaphatunk néhány későbbi szereplőről a sorozatban.

#2 A birodalom 
#3 A próféta
#4 The Visitor  várható megjelenés 2016. ( preview )

In the Spotlight - Leslie McAdam

By
Leslie McAdam is a California girl who loves romance, Little Dude, and well-defined abs. She lives in a drafty old farmhouse on a small orange tree farm in Southern California with her husband and two small children. Leslie always encourages her kids to be themselves – even if it means letting her daughter wear leopard print from head to toe. An avid reader from a young age, she will always trade watching TV for reading a book, unless it’s Top Gear. Or football. Leslie is employed by day but spends her nights writing about the men you fantasize about. She’s unapologetically sarcastic and notoriously terrible at comma placement (that’s what editors are for!). Always up for a laugh, Leslie tries to see humor in all things. When she’s not in the writing cave you’ll find her fangirling over Beck, camping with her family, or mixing up oil paints to depict her love of outdoors on canvas.

Excerpt Reveal - Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward

By
BLURB  It started out like any other morning on the train. Until I became mesmerized by the guy sitting across the aisle. He was barking at someone on his phone like he ruled the world. Who did the stuck-up suit think he was…God? Actually, he looked like a God. That was about it. When his stop came, he got up suddenly and left. So suddenly, he dropped his phone on the way out. I might have picked it up. I might have gone through all of his photos and called some of the numbers. I might have held onto the mystery man’s phone for days—until I finally conjured up the courage to return it. When I traipsed my ass across town to his fancy company, he refused to see me. So, I left the phone on the empty desk outside the arrogant jerk’s office. I might have also left behind a dirty picture on it first though.  I didn’t expect him to text back. I didn’t expect our exchanges to be hot as hell. I didn’t expect to fall for him—all before we even met. The two of us couldn’t have been any m...
