Rachel is shy about sharing her remarkable gift for painting…until she meets a professor with an equally remarkable gift of sight.
Mrs. Nellop is better at taming unruly high-school students than casting spells. But the five Crowder brothers cause more trouble in her classes than a plague of crows, and Mrs. Nellop isn’t above using an old witches’ recipe for transformation if it will make the world a better place.
When a mine collapse traps Betsy’s father underground, Betsy and her brother Cliff find that solving the mystery of the local schoolhouse ghost’s identity is the key to rescuing their dad and his fellow coal miners.
These and eight other stories make the supernatural almost believable and make the real world seem magical. Including “The Ghost of Christmas Past,” a story previously published in Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine under the title “Appalachian Blackmail,” this collection brings together many of award-winning author Jackie Vivelo’s most subtle, touching and masterly tales.
