About the author

My storytelling career started at a young age on the east coast. After college I, much like the gold prospectors of 1849, packed up all my belongings and drove across country in search of riches. What I discovered were a wealth of stories. When I'm not working on the next adventure in the Edgar Font series (Rothko Press, LA), I spend my time exploring ancient sites, traveling to places with names we can’t pronounce, and meeting interesting people with great tales to tell.

If my face looks familiar you might have seen me as the lead paranormal investigator on the Syfy hit show, "Ghost Mine," as the host of Reelz Channel's "Behind the Screams," or on my new show "Man vs The Paranormal," which is premiering in 2017.

[Neo Scarlett · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's a brilliant book, an escape room in book form, and I love it. There's a kind of special story connecting me to the book, so rambling ahead.

I first read this book in 2009, on a vacation to the US, when I was 11 years old. I'd ran out of the German books i brought from home to read and so I dragged my parents into a bookstore and picked up some books. The original print edition was among them, and I inhaled the book in a day or two. Unfortunately we couldn't find a bookstore carrying the other two books so my parents ordered them for my birthday and Christmas (both in December) that year. I spent a lot of time on the accompanying website, trying to figure out if new books had come out, even tried to market the book to my English teacher as reading matter for the class.
The three books have resided on my bookshelf ever since and I took to periodically checking up on them online if a new book had come out. Well, pandemic happened and I lost track of time etc (I'm sure many can relate) and I stumbled across the books while cleaning my bookshelf last week. Time to check on them online and indeed! A new book had been released in 2019, I was only three years late to reading it! Now, you can't read the fourth part of a series you read 13 years ago without reading the rest, so I picked them all up.

And what can I say, it's just as much fun to read as it was to 11-year old me. As I said above, it almost seems like an escape room in novel format and I love this kind of thing - hidden puzzles, traps, locked doors, and of course ghosts galore. So looking forward to refreshing my memory about the next two and then read the book that's absolutely brand new to me!
