First in the series that’s “a winning blend of mystery and the paranormal, with a little humor and romance thrown in for good measure” (Juliet Blackwell, New York Times bestselling author). When something goes bump in the night . . . it’s most likely a plumbing problem. But fake medium Eleanor Wilde is happy to investigate and cleanse your home of spectral presences—for a fee. Hey, it’s a living . . . Ellie has an ailing sister to care for and working as a ghost hunter who doesn’t believe in ghosts helps cover the bills. When she’s lucky, it also pays for the occasional tropical vacation. On her latest job, though, she may be in for some genuine scares. The skeptical, reserved, and very rich Nicholas Hartford III has flown her all the way to his family’s ancestral estate in England—supposedly haunted by a phantom named Xavier. Nicholas thinks it’s all just as much a crock as Ellie’s business is, but his mother is sure that Xavier is real, and he’s willing to employ Ellie if she can put a stop to the nonsense. But when an actual dead body appears—and subsequently disappears—at Castle Hartford, she’ll have to apply her talent for trickery and psychological insight to solve a flesh-and-blood murder. “A fun story with likable characters and a plot that kept me guessing until the end.” —Rose Pressey, USA Today bestselling author “Berry mixes a cunning whodunit with sly humor in what promises to be a winning paranormal series.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Download Everyone Calls Me Nettie Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This is the true story about a phenomenal woman with an incredible life who found herself deeply involved in the Civil War, even though she tried to avoid the encounter. When she realized she had a reason to meet Abraham Lincoln without any idea why, she discovered she had a purpose that no other person did. The book begins when Nettie is a child and she seems to be surrounded by spiritual psychic events. It follows her youth as she seems to begin developing psychic medium abilities and her experiences with them. By the time she was twenty she discovered she was a trance medium with the ability to channel spirit voices through her own body while seemingly unconscious. While attempting to get a furlough for her injured brother while he was in the Civil War field hospital, Nettie happened to meet Mary Todd Lincoln at a "circle" in Washington, D. C. in December, 1862. The rest is history and all contained within the book. This book was written to celebrate Nettie Colburn for who she was and what she did to help save the American Union. After discovering that my gr-gr-grandmother Nettie Colburn had written a book about Lincoln and her experiences in Washington during the Civil War, I was determined to find an original 1891 printing. I discovered her book had also been copyrighted in Canada and without thinking, I wrote the author to see if I'd be able to rewrite or add to the story. I was quickly given written permission to rewrite Nettie's book. At the time I didn't know why I was compelled to do so, but I inevitably discovered I had records, insights and other information that would fill in the story of Nettie Colburn. After reading her 1891 book I discovered she had embedded family history information within its pages that helped me determine her family story where nothing was known. I also was able to determine Nettie was more deeply involved in the White House planning and actions in the Union's fight against the rebels in the Civil War. I took Nettie's story and was able to expand upon it to bring her story back to life. I believe I made this book a much fuller version of a biography of Nettie Colburn. She was an important person in the Civil War and appeared to have been over-shadowed by history.

Download Talking to the Dead Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Barbara Weisberg’s Talking to the Dead blends biography and social history in this revelatory story of the family responsible for the rise of Spiritualism. A fascinating story of spirits and conjurors, skeptics and converts in the second half of nineteenth century America viewed through the lives of Kate and Maggie Fox, the sisters whose purported communication with the dead gave rise to the Spiritualism movement—and whose recanting forty years later is still shrouded in mystery. In March of 1848, Kate and Maggie Fox—sisters aged eleven and fourteen—anxiously reported to a neighbor that they had been hearing strange, unidentified sounds in their house. From a sequence of knocks and rattles translated by the young girls as a "voice from beyond," the Modern Spiritualism movement was born. Talking to the Dead follows the fascinating story of the two girls who were catapulted into an odd limelight after communicating with spirits that March night. Within a few years, tens of thousands of Americans were flocking to séances. An international movement followed. Yet thirty years after those first knocks, the sisters shocked the country by denying they had ever contacted spirits. Shortly after, the sisters once again changed their story and reaffirmed their belief in the spirit world. Weisberg traces not only the lives of the Fox sisters and their family (including their mysterious Svengali–like sister Leah) but also the social, religious, economic and political climates that provided the breeding ground for the movement. While this is a thorough, compelling overview of a potent time in US history, it is also an incredible ghost story.

Download The Psychic Life of Abraham Lincoln Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Throughout his life, Lincoln consulted oracles; at age 22, he was told by a seer that he would become president of the United States. In his dreams, he foresaw his own sudden death. Trauma and heartbreak opened the psychic door for this president, whose precognitive dreams, evil omens, and trance-like states are carefully documented in this bold and poignant chronicle of tragic beginnings, White House séances, and paranormal eruptions of the Civil War era. Aided by the deathbed memoir of his favorite medium, Lincoln's remarkable psychic experiences comes to life with communications from beyond, ESP, true and false prophecies, and thumbnail sketches of the most influential spiritualists in his orbit. Surveying clairvoyant incidents in Lincoln's life from cradle to grave, the book also examines the Emancipation Proclamation and the unseen powers that moved pen to hand for its historic signing.
