WHERE DARKNESS WALKS Clarie's world is about to change for the darker. Clarie couldn't believe it when her boyfriend broke up with her, not only breaking her heart, but doing it at the prom. However, when she uncovers a secret in the hidden back of an armoire, and meets Patrick, who is determined to help her forget her broken heart, she starts to realize that things could definitely be worse. When she is accidentally pushed against a set of dark doors into the shadow realm of Mortgatha, everything she fears is set into motion to keep her away from her beloved Earth world. Even with Patrick's help, the doorway home moves randomly, evil characters beset them at every turn, and the way home seems farther away than ever. TATTERED HEART Joseph Paul returns to Mortgatha to understand what happened to his dad. With his friend, Bitsy Hubbs, he sets out on a dangerous journey, only to be hounded by Mortgatha's dark entities. They follow a trail of disease and disaster inflicted on Mortgatha's citizens by the Darkness's Shadowed Hands. Even if they find what remains of Michael, Joseph has no understanding how the Earth rift works to return home. It's Bitsy's unusual visions that help locate the door... until they are confronted by the Shadowed Hands themselves. SHADOWED HANDS Darkness has come to Earth, invited, but without Clarie and Patrick's knowledge. It isn't until Clarie comes face-to-face with the Darkness that she realizes the danger their beloved Earth world is in. Their fate lies in the shadow realm of Mortgatha, the home of Darkness. They must help Joseph fight the deadly Shadowed Hands; their actions are governed by a centuries old myth that has taken young people who are innocent of the dark realm. With the assistance of an indigenous Light creature, they cause a chain of events that could destroy the hands of Darkness forever or deny Clarie and her friends any chance of returning to their beloved Earth world.
