"Nachdem ihre Mutter nach einem schweren Autounfall im Krankenhaus liegt, müssen Tara und Kyle bei ihren Großeltern wohnen, die sie noch nie zuvor gesehen haben.
May und Peter Folcroft scheinen zunächst warmherzig und ihr weitläufiges Haus am Waldrand wirkt idyllisch. Doch die Kinder werden das Gefühl nicht los, dass etwas sie beobachtet ...
Als ein heftiger Sturm ihren Kontakt zur Außenwelt abschneidet und sie in dem verwunschenen Herrenhaus festsitzen, müssen die Geschwister einen Weg finden, sich vor ihren zunehmend unberechenbaren Großeltern zu schützen ... und vor den Geistern der Familie Folcroft, die das Haus heimsuchen.
Neben dem Roman enthält dieser Band drei weitere Kurzgeschichten, die das ungewöhnliche Talent der jungen Autorin veranschaulichen."
"How far will she go to save the damned?
Keira is caught in a deadly battle. Her ability to help ghosts move on from the mortal world has made her a threat to Artec, a powerful corporation intent on trapping the tortured dead for profit. They've been tracking her for years and now, finally, there's nowhere left for her to run.
Artec fears Keira and everything she's capable of. They will stop at nothing to eliminate her-including sending armed men after everyone she holds dear.
Desperate and quickly running out of time, Keira races to hone her abilities as she searches for a way to destroy the twisted organization for good. But at least now she's no longer alone. Her friends have offered to follow wherever she leads, even if that means a direct strike deep into the heart of Artec's central base...and to the certain death waiting for them there."
"Blackwood House begrüßt seine neuen Besitzer. 100 Jahre des Wartens werden endlich belohnt.
Mara ist die Tochter von betrügerischen Spiritualisten. Ihre Kindheit war geprägt von Séancen und vorgetäuschten Geistererscheinungen.
Als Mara ihre Familie verließ, schwor sie sich, dass solch dummer Aberglaube nie wieder Platz in ihrem Leben finden wird. Nun lebt sie mit ihrem Freund Neil in einer Welt, die auf Rationalität beruht.
Dann kaufen sie das Blackwood House.
Sie wurden gewarnt, dass in dem verfallenen Gebäude seltsame Dinge geschehen, und tatsächlich: Türen öffnen sich von allein, in der Nacht hören sie Kinder schreien, ein Schaukelstuhl wippt pausenlos vor sich hin. Doch das ist erst der Beginn des Unheils.
Wohnen sie in einem Spukhaus? Mara will davon nichts hören. Das ist nur ausgeklügelter Schwindel … Aber wenn Geister nicht real sind, wer oder was haust dann in ihrem Haus?
Ihr liebt Geistergeschichten? Dann lest die Romane von Darcy Coates. Ihre Fans lieben es, wenn beim Lesen die kalten Finger der Angst die Wirbelsäule hinaufkrabbeln."

"When Keira first woke alone in a strange forest, she remembered only two things: that she could speak with the dead, helping them move on from the mortal world, and that sinister mask-wearing men were hunting her. She had no idea what she’d done to earn their hatred or what dangerous secrets she may have uncovered.
Until now.
Peeling back layer upon layer of the mystery surrounding her origins, Keira has finally learned that the strange masked men work for Artec, an organization profiting off spectral energy produced by hundreds of chained, tormented souls. Their goal is to spread their macabre cemeteries across the world, using the agony of the dead to extend their power and reach―and only Keira and her loyal group of friends can stop them. But there are still mysteries to uncover in Keira’s foggy memories, and as she prepares to fight for the souls of the tormented dead, what she doesn’t know about her own past may come back to haunt her."
