Summary

A Maggie MacKay Holiday Short Story 
  
It's Halloween and Maggie's mother is throwing a haunted house… as in, she's invited all  the ghosts of the neighborhood over for a party.  Unfortunately, one of the ghosts is not in high spirits and, in fact, is wanted by the Other Side's finest.  It is up to Maggie and Killian to find out what caused this soul's unrest and return him to his happy haunting ground. 
  
This is a Maggie MacKay Holiday Short, but can be read no matter where you are in the series.  Book one, Maggie for Hire, is free, so you might want to read that first, though.  This is just an excuse to hang out with some of your favorite characters outside of the main arc.  This story originally appeared in the Nightshade anthology. 
  
WARNING:  This short story contains cussing, brawling, and unladylike behavior.  Proceed at your own risk.
Available since: 09/27/2016.

    STRINGS is an action-packed, existential sci-fi horror that challenges the very mythos of the cosmos. Beyond space and time, beyond the gods of reality, something was consuming it all. 
    Daniel was lost; torn from his own reality and trapped in a violent universe of old gods, enigmas, and decay. The corporeality around him no longer followed the logic of time or physics, and the threat to his life was becoming more real with each breath. 
    A mysterious condition, known only as The Syndrome, threatens the existence of four remaining deities. As his sanity unravels and dissolves like the rotting flesh of the nightmarish beast that hunted him, Daniel must fight to understand the truth of his significance to these gods. Only then may he find a way out of these convolutions of reality, before his own mind succumbs to madness.
