From New York Times bestselling author Craig Parshall comes a riv-eting story of supernatural suspense.
One man’s epic struggle with the World, the Flesh, and the Devil . . .
Trevor Black was a high-flying criminal defense lawyer in New York City with a trophy wife, a six-figure Aston Martin, and a winning record in court. But he was blind to how past decisions, including his youthful encounter with the supernatural, could haunt him. In a sudden turn of events, his marriage is shattered and his law practice is destroyed, bringing him to a crisis decision that carries with it a burdensome gift: the ability to detect the demonic underworld. And the dark forces that Trevor can see are gunning for him. When a hometown friend from his past is murdered, the MO is eerily similar to a trail of occult murders that have already crossed the lawyer’s path. Trevor returns home to find the killer and is forced to face his demons-both personal and supernatural. Saber más -
9,99 $This isn’t about me. This story, I mean. So already you got a reason to hang it up. At least that’s what Mrs. Smith, our English teacher, says.
But the story is about ten-year-old Laney Grafton and the new girl in her class-Lara Phelps, whom everyone bullies from the minute she shows up. Laney is just relieved to have someone else as a target of bullying. But instead of acting the way a bullied kid normally acts, this new girl returns kindness for a meanness that intensifies . . . until nobody remains unchanged, not even the reader.
In a unique and multi-layered story, with equal parts humor and angst, Laney communicates the art of storytelling as it happens, with chapter headings, such as: Character, Setting, Conflict, Rising Action, Climax. And she weaves an unforgettable tale of a new girl who transforms an entire class and, in the process, reveals the best and worst in all of us.
This is a powerful and emotional story, which School Library Journal called "Thoroughly enjoyable and unexpectedly wry, . . . as intelligent as it is succinct." Saber más -
