SMARR, Ga., Aug. 22, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- There is an old saying that people should be careful about making wishes. When wishes do come true, there are certain things that can't be handled or explained. In the new book Once Upon a Midnight Wind, authored by Frances Davis, a young girl gets the adventure of her dreams only to realize later that danger came along with it.
In this book, readers will meet Abby Tyler, an avid reader of mystery stories. Now aged twelve, she dreams about the excitement of having her own mystery adventure. What she does not expect, however, was getting involved in a dangerous web of deception and twists a few days later when a stranger approaches their home and left abruptly without saying anything. Soon enough, the police arrive to tell the Tylers about an unidentified accident victim who apparently knew them, which leaves Abby in a state of embarrassment. A few weeks later, Abby and her family move to a house in another state, which turns out to be inhabited by a resident ghost. Despite the haunting, Abby still decides to solve the mystery behind all the incidents. Will she be able to survive this real adventure of hers or is she doomed? Read the book to find out.
