Ravynne Sisters #10

The Darklings

Rate this book
The Ravynne sisters take another plunge down what Meg calls Alice’s ‘rabbit hole’ when they head to a village called Solomon’s Notch deep in the heart of Vermont’s Green Mountains. Asked to investigate the disappearance of four young students, they arrive incognito at the Tremayne Academy for Young Ladies where they seek employment under their new identities. Converted from the sprawling Neo-Gothic mansion built by the Copper King, Harland Tremayne, in the late 1800s, the academy was now a private school for the cast-away children of the very wealthy, and administered by the prim Mary Tremayne and her way too gorgeous (in Meg’s estimation) older brother Aidan. The sisters must tread warily in the complex web of intrigue they soon find themselves mired in as they discover what goes ‘bump in the night’ is a brand new kind of horror.

I began my actual writing career as a journalist and then a TV scriptwriter, but loved putting words together to form images/thoughts/feelings almost as soon as I could grasp a pencil.
There are six things important to me...well, most important to me: To love unconditionally, to always keep a sense of 'wonder', to always be kind, to find joy in simple things, to never take myself too seriously, and to make sure I don't leave this earth with a list of "if only I hads" trailing behind me.
I've taken many 'leaps of faith' in my time and, so far, have landed on my feet or, in one case, on a dilapitated houseboat with my dog, and a lot of enthusiasm. I named her 'Sanctuary Annie' and hoped for the best. I knew nothing about boats, couldn't swim and wondered how long she would stay afloat.
In the middle of the night, when my dog jumped up to join me on the antique Victorian bed I had moved on board, I would check to see if he was wet, knowing, if so, we were both in big trouble. But Sanctuary Annie hung in there, even surviving a hurricane, when others around her were not so fortunate.
Living in the small marina, with the sea as my back yard, I found a profound sense of peace..and the love of my life....my Jim, captain of 'Wings', a beautiful racing sloop that flies across the water, when the wind fills her sails.
I often think how much I would have missed out on, if I hadn't taken that leap of faith and followed my heart. Life is meant to be lived and I intend to keep on doing just that.

Super great book.

I started reading the first Ravynne Sisters book of their series, and loved it. Then I bought the whole series. Each book just gets better than the last. I recommend the whole series. Every book in the series rates five stars or more.
