About this series
Cherry and her family barely survived their first confrontation with Macadamian Pliers. Now, alongside crazy brother Frank and friend-with-a-reputation Jack, they must figure out how the clean up the mess that evil man left behind. Cherry's determined to help her friend Grace clear her new home of its haunting, was certain that with her ghost dogs at her side it would be easy, but a month has passed and the troubles continue. Perhaps she should admit the truth: she simply isn't skilled or strong enough, and the defeat of their enemy was a fluke.
Macadamian is far from done, however. What the Raines have experienced was merely the first act. He's been busy for a long time, and there are more spirits in Emmet's Peak than any of them suspect... but they're about to find out.
Part horror, part thriller, the action escalates in the next chapter of Macadamian Pliers terrible plan both in the past and the present. Timelines collide as in 1984 Mac meets the man who will forever change the course of his life, and in the now Cherry discovers there are far more powers awaiting if she can learn to let go.

Cherry's heart crammed into her throat. She was alone with Mr. Pliers. He resembled a grotesque ill-fitting door carved into the shape of a black-suited golem. The top of his head brushed the ceiling. Suddenly the bedroom didn't seem anywhere near big enough. 'It's the view, isn't it?' He chuckled then, a sound which made the ends of Cherry's bones grind together. Phlegm and rust and sparks: these are the things she thought of when she heard that laugh. 'I would gaze out of the window for hours, imagined I could pick up the little people as they went about their days and place them anywhere else if I wanted to. Drop them from a great height if it pleased me.' He mimed the action with nimble pinching fingers, plucking a distant imaginary figure from a sidewalk and flinging them off towards the horizon. In Cherry's mind there was a tiny scream. 'I think you're going to have quite a time in this house, Cherry. Don't you?' Macadamian Pliers is an unpleasant man with a hideous plan. He's just sold a house to Emmet's Peak's newest family, and they're about to find out it's haunted. He made it that way.In the first volume of a trilogy, Cherry and Frank Raine find themselves in a battle of wits and nerves against both the ghosts in their new home and the man who put them there. Cherry, physically and emotionally scarred by a car crash, must draw from within herself the strength to confront her fears and save her family. Frank must choose between taking responsibility for once or being led astray by firebug Jack, a local boy with a dark sense of fun. As the haunting escalates, Cherry discovers that other homes have been affected by the strange-shaped and evil-hearted Pliers, but what chance do a couple of kids have against such a man?
