The Edgewater Chronicles Series

Twelve year old Nikola stood in front of an open grave. His grandma was dead and gone.   With her death, a door was kicked open, and an ancestral curse—a mark on Nikola's bloodline and rooted in the very bones of the earth—lay revealed. Change is hard. Being the new kid at school is harder, especially with a sinister Vice Principal like William Weaver.   Nikola meets a girl named Lizzy. The shocking things happening to him were happening to her as well. She lived on a nearby lake, in a cabin her grandpa had built long ago. Spook Central, she called it.    They meet Dmitry, ancient and mysterious—with secrets of his own. Nikola is forced to choose—unravel the mystery of his dark lineage and bring the fight to the enemy, or face a lifetime of running.   Buy The Dark Rises to discover Nikola's choice today!

A homicidal vice principal was only the beginning. The darkness that polluted VP Weavers' mind, driving him to madness, has infected another—someone more adept, cunning, and practiced in wielding the black magic. The Dark Queen—who now stands unveiled and proclaims her reign of terror has begun.   Can twelve-year-old friends Nikola and Lizzy face this murderous new threat without the wisdom of a fallen ally? With little time to mourn and put their lives back together, they must conceive a strategy to defeat the invading darkness.   Can the Legion of Sorrow arrive in time? Will the prophecies that intertwine Nikola and Lizzy be proven true, and is confiding in family enough to challenge this monstrous evil?   Buy The Dark Reign today to discover the answers!

A year on the run with everything to lose.   The bad dream of the past fourteen months has morphed into a full-blown nightmare for Nikola and Lizzy. In a dizzying sprint halfway across the world, they prepare to face a vastly more dangerous foe—a triple threat not born of this world, and intent upon their utter defeat.   Sailing into the Bay of Kotor under the cover of night, they find themselves attacked by ancient magic before even setting foot on the rocky shore. The old country seethes with unexpected malice, and the path to their goal grows more difficult by the hour. Nikola and Lizzy search for new allies to even the odds against the malevolent forces that await under the black mountain, but can they be trusted?   The lives of Lizzy's family hang in the balance as the last clash against the Ancient Ones unfolds. Can Nikola and Lizzy unlock the puzzle of their destiny before it's too late?
