Book Description
Meghalaya is an untamed paradise with an ultimate fusion of diverse culture, nature's beauty, humble tribes, fascinating folklore & unusual blissful aura. The hypnotic charm of Meghalaya enticed him into its trance. Unaware about the creepy & spine chilling occurrence the protagonist was running into, there was nothing much he could do. But it was just a start of the journey which was about to infuse unanticipated encounters. Changing the definition of travel, he made an unbreakable bond with the people, places and the stimulating folklores of the land. The toffee-nosed peacock, the waiting tortoise, the golden ladder, all became part of his tale. Amidst this, someone special crosses his path unexpectedly, and at the end, he is left befuddled with the game destiny plays. After the successful first book, ‘The Days by the Ganges – Rishikesh’, the authors bring forth their second alchemy with this travelogue. This book decodes the lyrics of Meghalaya, in a manner that the song of the journey is composed by the readers like their own.

Book Description
A psychic investigates a mysterious disappearance high in the Appalachian Mountains in this novel from a “Grand Master of her craft” (Barbara Michaels). It’s a legacy Christy Loren never wanted. The unwitting inheritor of her mother’s psychic gifts, the Long Island librarian assists in police investigations, but they’ve become too hard for her to bear. Too many victims. Too many shallow graves. So she’s fled to the peaceful foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains to stay with her aunt Nona. But Christy is soon drawn back into a world of terrifying visions—those of a female hiker who died under suspicious circumstances and an ethereal beauty named Deirdre who vanished into the mountain mist. Warned by her mother’s eerie premonitions, threatened by strangers, and aided by Deirdre’s tormented and attractive husband, Christy is beginning to see things no one else can. If there’s a link between the two mysteries, Christy will find it—if she’s not afraid to look deeper. New York Times–bestselling and Edgar Award–winning author Phyllis A. Whitney “piles on the suspense” in this novel of superstition, second-sight, and uncanny romantic tension (Publishers Weekly). This ebook features an illustrated biography of Phyllis A. Whitney including rare images from the author’s estate.
