Justice with James

 

When Emily welcomes a women’s monastery to the property next door to Windy Corner, she anticipates blessings. But instead, the nuns’ building activities awaken a century-old curse.

When retired literature professor Emily Richards and her sheriff husband, Luke, welcome a small Orthodox women’s monastery to the property next door to Windy Corner, they anticipate blessings. But instead, the nuns’ slow demolition of the derelict house on the property awakens an old curse—the ghost of a woman who died tragically there over a century before. The youngest of the novices, who has been deeply traumatized by past events, seems to be the ghost’s particular target. Meanwhile, the building work is plagued by a series of accidents and by opposition from a party in the town. When a young workman falls to his death, Emily must confront the possibility that her favorite novice may be responsible.

 

The Ghostwriter

 

Reclusive bestselling author Maeve O’Shaughnessy hires her identical twin, Margaret, to be her public persona. The line between the sisters has always been blurred, but now it’s in danger of disappearing altogether.

Maeve O’Shaughnessy has been writing novels to great critical acclaim for twenty years without ever making a public appearance. But when her publisher insists she begin promoting her own books, Maeve, a recluse with anxiety disorder, cannot face such a terrifying ordeal. Instead, she recruits her identical twin, Margaret, to be her public persona.

Despite her misgivings, Margaret—recently divorced and in need of income—agrees. Problems quickly arise, from being recognized by acquaintances to falling in love with a man who hero-worships Maeve. With every talk or book signing, the line between her own personality and her sister’s blurs a little more. When Maeve is critically injured in a car accident, Margaret faces the most harrowing decision of all: Will she continue to live as Maeve, or will she take possession of her own life and become the woman she was always meant to be?
