"A shocking, power packed paranormal mystery"

Cheryl Thompson has returned to her North Carolina home only days after her Grandmother's funeral, and quickly finds herself embroiled in the mystery of her Aunt Celia's death. A death that occurred 35 years ago.

Cheryl knows the questions she's asking could likely get her killed, she knows the secrets the small town and its more influential citizens hold will not be given up easily, especially when those secrets involve a young black woman, and the games the higher society white males played. North Carolina has changed a lot over the years, but some things will never be relinquished easy, certain prejudices never forgotten. But the paranormal visits from her dead Aunt, and the danger suddenly coming closer to her, pull Cheryl into a maze of questions, confusing answers, and enemies she would have never imagined.

Solving her Aunt's death will bring more pain to not just her, but her Aunt Gladys, the aunt she always wanted to love, and the man who betrayed her. The paths twist and cross, and come full circle to man who will test Cheryl's determination to live, and the ghost of her Aunt Celia, who is determined to see justice done.

Celia is an emotional, edge of your seat paranormal mystery that grips your imagination and your curiousity and draws you inexoribly into the story S.L. Cullars had created. A definite must read for the gripping drama and emotional intensity this author has set up. CELIA will draw you in, keep you hanging and then reveal the answers in a shocking, power packed scene that will leave you gasping.
