Includes:
Eldritch Manor — Book #1
Where have all the ancient creatures of myth and legend gone? Apparently, they’re disguised as senior citizens, and they live in a boarding house in twelve-year-old Willa Fuller’s neighbourhood. When Willa is left to babysit the cantankerous oldsters while their sinister landlady, Miss Trang, is away, the forces of darkness attack!
Shadow Wrack — Book #2
After the events of Eldritch Manor, Willa just wants peace and quiet, but the burned-down old house is only creating more problems. The old folks are restless, the magical groups are fighting with each other, and Willa’s attempts to “fix” her family aren’t going well at all. The forces of darkness were easier to handle!

2014 Forest of Reading, Silver Birch Award — Shortlisted, Fiction 2014 Rocky Mountain Book Award — Shortlisted Are those cranky old folks at the retirement home really what they seem? Twelve-year-old Willa Fuller is convinced that the old folks in the shabby boarding house down the street are prisoners of their sinister landlady, Miss Trang. Only when Willa is hired on as housekeeper does she discover the truth, which is far more fascinating. Eldritch Manor is a retirement home for some very strange beings indeed. All have stories to tell – and petty grievances with one another and the world at large. Storm clouds are on the horizon, however, and when Miss Trang departs on urgent business, Willa is left to babysit the cantankerous bunch. Can she keep the oldsters in line, stitch up unravelling time, and repel an all-out attack from the forces of darkness … all while keeping the nosy neighbours out of their business and uncovering a startling secret about her own past?

CCBC’s Best Books for Kids & Teens (Spring 2016) — Commended After defeating the forces of evil in Eldritch Manor, Willa must rebuild the manor — and her family. Can Willa rally her supernatural friends to defeat an invasion from beyond? After battling and defeating the forces of darkness, Willa is looking forward to a little well-earned peace and quiet. Unfortunately, her recent adventures have given birth to new problems, not the least of which is the task of rebuilding Eldritch Manor, a retirement home for supernatural beings, from the ground up. And no one is behaving themselves: Mab’s fairies have declared war on the dwarf construction crew, Willa’s Mom and Belle are feuding, Baz is running amok, Horace is living in the woods, the phoenix squawks all night long, and there’s never a dragon around when you need one. To be perfectly honest, Willa is starting to think the forces of darkness were easier to handle than her family and friends — until those forces start to rise again! Trouble is definitely brewing, and the source lies very close to home, Who can Willa trust? Who will betray them? Who will open the door for the darkness to enter?

As spring comes to Eldritch Manor, Willa deals with the King of the Fairies, a terrifying creature, and the usual family drama. Spring comes to Eldritch Manor, bringing with it all kinds of mayhem. The arrival of the King of the Fairies throws the resident fairies into a romantic tizzy. Mab neglects her knitting, resulting in holes in time through which any manner of evil can enter their world. Nature, weather, and time itself are all out of whack, and everyone is freaked about Willa’s upcoming “unlucky” thirteenth birthday. On top of everything, Willa makes a shocking discovery about her mother, which supports Belle’s claim that Willa is part mermaid! Willa is plagued with questions. How can she be a mermaid if she doesn’t have a tail and is terrified of water? How long do dragons hibernate? Why are there time holes in the pool, and where do they lead? Why are the backyard plants invading the house? And why does she keep dreaming about a sinister Green Man?
