IN THE SHIMMER

is the story of two young coeds who become entangled in a web of deceit. Janice, a hardworking woman from meager means finds herself struggling to defend her best friend Chloe, the wealthy heiress to the Stratford fortune, from the possession of a vengeful entity. That is, until she learns that her loyalties aren't warrented. Janice discovers her friend is harboring a ghastly secret, which is far worse than her own.

Set in present day Northern California, IN THE SHIMMER is not the typical "ghost story." The book does serve up a chill, but then uses (somewhat twisted) humor to illustrate that no matter how far we might think we have advanced as a society, severe social inequities still remain.
