After six long years, Brianna Chapman is finally able to cope with witnessing the murder of her parents.
Then, dead animals start showing up on her doorstep, her tires are slashed and her yard is scorched by an unexplained fire.
But Brianna refuses to reopen her parent's six-year-old arson-murder cold case, along with all the old wounds.
Nathan Reed sees the incidents differently and quietly begins an investigation of his own.
As Nathan's and Brianna's lives and passions intertwine, Nathan discovers a painful truth. Brianna's parents weren't the arsonist's target. Brianna was.
And the killer is back to finish the job.

Ballantine Books. MM. 0449006549 0449006549 From Publishers Weekly With more than 30 books under his belt veteran suspense novelist Saul is back with a horror novel featuring witchcraft teen revenge and a haunted house. Angel Sullivan a plain-looking 14-year-old who never fits in gets a chance for a fresh start when her family moves into the plush community of Roundtree. Myra her obsessively religious mother and Marty her lazy alcoholic father buy a house on Black Creek Crossing even though the place is rumored to be haunted. Soon after they settle in a black cat mysteriously appears out of thin air smoke from a nonexistent fire fills the house and a girl's face appears in the darkness reflected in a mirror. Meanwhile Angel wih the help of another school outcast Seth Baker begins to investigate the history of the house. They discover an ancient book of spells that may have belonged to the house's original owners members of a Salem-like community of witches and the teens proceed to cast spells on the bullies who torment them. But the sinister forces inhabiting the house are just biding their time until they turn their malice on Angel and Seth. Saul crafts a few passable scenes-the potions Angel and Seth concoct work in clever ways-but the chills are few and far between in this lackluster paint-by-the-numbers horror tale.

From Booklist The seventeenth-century house at Black Creek Crossing in Roundtree Massachusetts is a hard sell. Since the original owner's wife and daughter were burned for witchcraft it has seldom been occupied long and those who occupy it usually die in it mysteriously and violently. Myra Sullivan doesn't know all that when her realtor sister shows her the house and when husband Marty and daughter Angel take a shine to it she's sold because after all she and frequently out-of-work Marty can actually afford it. Angel is drawn to a west-facing bedroom and no sooner does she settle in than she finds a black cat in the closet. How did it get in And how when it goes does it leave utterly unobserved Well think about it witchophiles. It's the doppelganger of the girl witch's spirit and in short order it leads Angel and her new friend Seth Baker to a secluded cabin and a book of spells that the two 13-year-olds discover they can use to defeat their foes. They have more than their fair share of those starting with abusive fathers and unhelpful mothers and including classmates who harass them verbally and physically. Angel and Seth are two more of the immensely sympathetic and appealing teen protagonists that Saul excels at creating but they are tampering with evil stuff and unlike say similar characters in John Farris' or Dean Koontz's books they don't escape punishment in this remarkably gratifying horror yarn.

CARROLL THE DYING MAN SAID, WILL YOU COME TO ME? WHO IS THE MAN LAYING THERE HALF BURNED- THE MEDICINE MAN? AND THEN I THREW AT HIM MY MOST BITTER HATRED AND CONTEMPT BECAUSE HE HAS CAUSED THE DEATH OF MY PEOPLE. Folks, because many of the old American western magazines and books were not indexed and their heroes lost to posterity, I index every item I sell. See below for each and every name included in this great story. Your Hero might be there! I have found only one other copy of this magazine in 10000 I have handled. As many of you know, I specialize in finding old stories of long ago that have been overlooked, seldom found and rarely read. Here is the story entitled:WOUNDED KNEE, A DIFFERENT VIEWby John M. Carroll. History has recorded the Wounded Knee Massacre from one extreme to the other. The author here has delved into records from the National Archives, Smithsonian Institute to present a very balanced account. Although the battle was romanticized by the press with outrageous tales of inhumanity and slaughter, truth was, it seems, that the battle was edged on by an Indian medicine man named Yellow Bird. Although Yellow Bird espoused the invincibility of Indian braves in a Ghost Dance, he had merely copied the dance from a Nevada Indian named Wovoka. Nevertheless, Indian Bird roused the Indians and actually led them into starting the battle of Wounded Knee. Several accounts of missionaries, priest and reverends are here cited who were eyewitnesses to the struggle and these documented reports, letters and diaries, from the National Archives, verify the actual facts of Wounded Knee. Story recites the heroism of Battery E, lst US Artillery Corporal Paul H. WEINERT who won the Medal of Honor for his part in the action. I have indexed all names below in the history for you to read. Very informative and well written, balanced story of what actually happened at Wounded Knee. I had not seen it before but that is not unusual, the history of America lies on shelves of the book dealers who seldom read their content. Sooner or later - Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves. If I can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, - its worth all the time I spend.GENEALOGY NAMES INDEXED IN THIS STORY w * indicating picture: WOUNDED KNEE " A DIFFERENT VIEW, by JOHN M.
