Whispers of Shadows and Stars
By Jada Ryker
Whispers of Shadows and Stars: Stories of Mystery and the Macabre traverses mystery, horror, and science fiction. This collection includes tales like Gimlet, As the Crow Flies, A Cross to Bear, An Alien Act of Honor, and The Hand of Karma. In Gimlet, Juneau and Coldwell pose as patients in a mental hospital to solve a paranormal mystery. As they’re drawn deeper into the case, a simmering tension grows between them—testing their partnership as much as their courage. Fellow patient Iris, notorious for her séances and criminal record, claims she's in contact with spirits who hold the answers. Will her otherworldly connections help Juneau and Coldwell solve the mystery, or lead to a one-way trip to the morgue? In As the Crow Flies, Fresna, a middle-aged nursing assistant, forms a bond with Mr. Corvis, an eccentric resident in the nursing home where she works. When strange occurrences follow Mr. Corvis’s presence, Fresna begins to question whether her fondness for him has put her in harm’s way.
