    Adria Waters

    language (H2O Press, Oct. 30, 2016)
    Before that winter, I was afraid of everything. Really. Clowns, bats, aliens, ghosts...especially ghosts because, well, I see them all the time. Except the one I wanted to see most. My mom. Marissa Anderson is broken after her mother’s death and the move to the small town where her father grew up isn’t helping. She is convinced that she will spend her junior year of high school completely alone and miserable. All of that changes when she meets a group of outcasts led by Evie Patton, who is broken in her own way. When Marissa reveals to her new friends that she has the ability to see spirits, she finds herself drawn into their paranormal investigations. With her help, the newly formed Ghost Hunters Society begins to dig up the whispers of the past as they document and help the restless souls of Culvers Grove. Danger lurks in the town, though, and when they set out to find the legendary ghost of the Weeping Bridge, the group soon realizes that some secrets are better left buried.It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt…and someone will.

    language (H2O Press, April 30, 2017)
    What if it was Dad? Evie? Grant? My mom? How far would I go to save someone I loved? The Ghost Hunters Society is back together and everything should be going well, but it isn’t. Spirits of the dead are walking around the town of Culvers Grove, and with the veil ripped away, Marissa sees them all. All the time. The constant visions are draining her and slowly making her question her grasp on reality. Evie steps in to help in any way she can, but the abilities she had while she was a ghost are fading and her mind is preoccupied with finding her friend, Sam, whose sacrifice allowed her to escape the darkness that lies underneath the town of Culvers Grove. The group wants to help Evie, but even if they can find Sam, it could be too late to save him. Something old, something new, something borrowed…something evil.
