    About this series

    For as long as she can remember, eleven-year-old Addy Wilder has been seeing visions of the past and future. Usually they're harmless, and she's even managed to make a few friends among the phantoms she sees in the smoke. To her, they're just a regular part of life, and nothing to be concerned about.

    Lately, though, her mind has been occupied by something better: She has a brand-new, official, for-real boyfriend, and a Halloween dance to attend with him, and they'll get their costumes sorted out just as soon as they're able to stop kissing.

    All is right in Addy's world … until the Sunday morning when she sees something that frightens her to her core: A vision of someone she cares deeply about, laid out in a casket, dead by an unknown circumstance.

    Now, Addy has only a few days to discover what to do about her latest vision and prevent that death. Even worse, she knows that if she fails, everything she's ever known and loved will die, as well.

    This free and stand-alone story serves as an introduction to Peed's Vale for those who have not visited before, and yields a good cross-section of Burlingham and its citizens. Come and explore Brooker Street, Burlingham Contiguous School, and the farmland-patchworked valley they rest in. Come and discover the customs and morés of a town from another time, in the universe next door, where life isn't as simple as it seems, and the people are unlike any you've known

      The year is 1722, and Greta Brücke can no longer tolerate life in the American colony of Karlsburg. Having been abused by her cousins once too often, she flees into the wilderness and discovers a way of life she hadn't ever conceived. Girl-in-the-Water is a visionary among her people, though she leads a lonely life — not just because she has visions, but because she is also an orphan, and is two-spirits. Her life is soon to change; for she is about to encounter a European colonist whose ways are, perhaps, not so different from her own. But what will happen to their friendship if Greta ever discovers Girl-in-the-Water's deepest secret? Set 300 years in the past, "Wolves and Cougars" is a novella that's pertinent today. Compact and evocative with vividly-drawn characters, this story will stay with you long after you've read the final page.

      A Simple Recipe for Intrigue: Take Denham McMurrough, a young electronics genius living in small town America during the mid-1950's. Add one Wilfred Sinclair, captain of the swim team, brilliant mathematician, and Den's best friend and occasional bedmate. Combine Frieda Glanz, a former German national who fled the Nazi regime in 1938, and blend with Denham until stiff peaks form. Mix well with a home-built pair of computers, a never-before-seen cipher system, and a sprinkling of surveillance by the FBI. Allow mixture to rise into a novella of unconventional romance, set in an unconventional town. Savor in small slices; or devour whole at one sitting.

      Donny didn't meet Jake under the best of all possible circumstances — he'd been trying to kill himself at the time — but that momentary bout of madness just might have been the best thing that ever happened to him. Taking refuge and plying a trade in the one-horse town of Burlingham, Donny finds in Jake more than friendship, more than affection, more, even, than a lover; and with the help of their mutual friend Maggie, he discovers things about himself he never knew. But as a thunderhead begins to swell above Halter Lake and loom over the people Donny has grown to love, his history is about to rediscover him, with fury burning in its heart and hatred curdling its soul. Set in the 1960's, "With a Little Help" is a story of a unique young man, an unusual town, and the redemptive power of love. Come, now, and visit Burlingham. You'll be glad you did.
