  "Now I've done it," the mouse thought, looking straight at her. "I've really done it, this time."  It really is happening, thought Rachel. Things that only happen in stories can happen to me. Anything can happen, because this mouse is talking.  The St. Michael's Mice are no ordinary mice, but it takes Rachel a while to find out just how wonderful they are. When Rachel's father moves to a new church, so much goes wrong that sometimes Rachel doesn't think things will ever work out. Rachel is lonely; her father is having a difficult time; and her mother is unwell. But when the mice appear, Rachel finds she has a marvellous, incredible secret to keep. Plus a mystery to solve, which only she can.  Rachel wants to do the special task that the mice have for her, and she really want a friend. A new best friend.  The first book written by the author of The Mistmantle Chronicles.

  The Last Drive by Carl Jacobi - A short story of a grisly ride through a blizzard with a corpse! 
  It was a cold wind that whipped across the hills that November evening. There was snow in the air, and Jeb Waters in the cab of his jolting van shivered and drew the collar of his sheepskin higher about the throat. All day endless masses of white cumulus cloud had raced across a cheerless sky. They were gray now, those clouds, leaden gray, and so low-hanging they seemed to lie like a pall on the crest of each distant hillock. Off to the right, strn and majestic, like a great parade of H. G. Wells’ Martian creatures, marched the towers of the Eastern States Power lines, the only evidence here of present-day civilization. A low humming whine rose from the taut wires now as the mounting wind twanged them in defiance. 
  Through the windshield Jeb Waters scanned the sky anxiously. 
  "It’s going to be a cold trip back,” he muttered to himself. “Looks mighty like a blizzard startin’.”

  Eyeless horrors. Giant, flesh-eating bugs. Despite everything Whispering Pines has thrown at her, Rae has never given up searching for her missing father. But when she discovers a surprising connection between his disappearance and Green On!, the shady alternative energy company that runs her town, she'll be forced to confront a monster more dangerous than anything she's ever faced before. 
   
   
   
  Meanwhile, now that Caden's vindictive older brother is gone, it's up to him to uphold the family business and ensure that the evil in the Other Place never breaks free. But when a mangled body is discovered in his backyard, he realizes that he can't protect Whispering Pines from the monstrous creatures of the Other Place—because they're already here. 
   
   
   
  The only way for both Caden and Rae to save the people of Whispering Pines is to embark on a mission deep into the heart of the Other Place. There, Caden will have to come to terms with the truth of his family's legacy and learn how to harness his full power. 
   
   
   
  If he fails, all the horrors of the Other Place will descend on Whispering Pines, and that's a threat that the town—and the world—cannot survive.
