Unexplainable Expectations
Have you ever walked into a place and instantly became ill at ease? Did you ever meet someone and sensed your spirit clash with theirs? Was there ever a time you couldn’t explain, but you simply knew something bad might happen at any moment—and it did? The stunning Prologue for the Strange Sands Suspense Series introduces Claire Ellison, a deeply faithful Christian with remarkable experiences. Her actions set in motion a vendetta that spans over a century to a final showdown between good and evil for her descendant, Mercedes Ellison, who wants to escape her family legacy of encounters that are rumored to have inspired a few British mystery and horror writers of the 19th century.
Book Excerpt
Strange Sands Novella Collection 1-3
Claire Ellison felt the familiar rush of adrenaline that alerted her to a battle being waged. She looked up from the Bible in her lap to the dying flames in the hearth. “What?” she whispered.
She waited for some sort of revelation, direction, or conviction, and sat motionless, silencing the comforting creak of her old rocking chair. Her heart suddenly jumped with anticipation and flooded with confidence. Her hands trembled, not with fear, but with boldness and courage.
The house maid came to the door. “Do you need anything before we tuck the house in for the evening?” She saw Claire’s eyes and kneeled beside the arm of the chair. “Miss Claire, how can I help?”
“You can alert the staff to be watchful. I’m not sure why, but I hope they will humor an old woman.” She smiled and closed the leather volume, handing it to the maid. Then she rose slowly from the rocking chair. “Please go get Varon and be ready for the emergency plan.”
