The need to relieve stress and anxiety, for physical and mental health during a disaster, can be as simple as sharing some survival information, and a glorified cup of tea, it seems. The stranded Preppers from a nationwide electrical grid down, and communication breakdown event occurring back at the Hideaway, would soon benefit from this wisdom, as Farley continues to supply them with emergency provisions. That is, if he can ever get back to them! Cyber war, pandemics, and world-wide unrest - survival was the only thing on their Prepper minds now, as society began its collapse.

Twenty years ago, a woman with a secret vanished only to turn up murdered a year later on the same shoreline where she'd disappeared. And now it's happening again. Psychic Ryley St. James has found a killer's dumping ground. Six dead bodies took their secrets to a watery grave. And now Ryley's name has been added to the killer's hit list. She refuses to be number seven.

There's nothing that Ryley hates worse than her father, but serial killers rank a close second. Alive or dead, they're all the same—they need to be stopped. When a ghostly serial killer torments a young girl, Ryley must put an end to his reign of terror and figure out a way to shove him into the great beyond. But when a fellow psychic turns up dead, and another one suddenly goes missing, Ryley suspects that it's not just the ghostly threats she needs to worry about. There's also a live predator lurking somewhere in the shadows.

Psychic Ryley St. James has a million problems, but a haunted house isn't one of them. Until now. When a woman is attacked in a haunted house and sent to the hospital fighting for her life, her powerful fiance blackmails Ryley into uncovering the deadly secrets hidden on the property. The house reeks of ill warnings and bad tidings. This isn't what Ryley calls a typical haunting. It's an infestation, and the evil spirit residing inside refuses to cooperate. Now she'll have to risk her life to save her brother's career, her multi-million-dollar foundation, and her new unorthodox family.

Psychic Ryley St. James was a mere five years old when she witnessed her first murder. Twenty years and multiple therapy sessions later, Ryley desires a normal life, a life free from hiding in the shadows, looking over her shoulder each day. When a close friend reveals they're being stalked by a vengeful ghost, Ryley sets out to uncover the truth about the ghost's mysterious death. As the ghost shifts her attention to Ryley, attempting to stop her from discovering the truth, Ryley's identity is thrust back into the limelight, revealed for all to see.
