The town of Mapleview has the reputation of paranormal activity and urban legends. The Trivelli House - one of the oldest, historical buildings in town - has been owned by the family for generations. And it, too, has its legend.
Mary, a member of the family, purchases the house from her aunt. She's determined to rid the property of any stigmatism or reputation, as it is the house she has wanted since she was a little girl. But a temporary guest of Mary's moves in with her, and soon disappears.
More disappearances follow, and even though the Mapleview police have their most experienced detectives on the case, they can provide no answers. Are the disappearances supernatural, and related to the dark, centuries-old history of Mapleview?

Tom Raimbault resides in the Chicago land area with his wife and two daughters. When not writing, he works as a lab technician at a telecommunications company and is self-described on his resume as a "technology professional" who has worked with cellular & IP infrastructure, biomedical equipment, emergency two-way radios and computer hardware. Tom began to produce weird writings back in 2000 while working the graveyard shift. The nightly edits were emailed to a small collection of coworkers who looked forward to something unusual to keep them awake or humored. This practice was ended when he was moved to a different shift. Sadly, his enjoyment of writing was forgotten for several years, until the autumn of 2007, when old friends received a "blast from the past" email with the recognizable words, "Hello All". The strange writings and short stories had resumed and a personal website was soon to follow. In autumn of 2009, Tom published his first book, Freaked out Horror (a collection of short stories), through Create Space and was soon available on Amazon and Kindle. The work has been temporarily unpublished and will be re-released in 2011 with many additions, revisions and improvements. In a commitment to produce higher quality writings, Tom no longer produces daily short stories on his website, but keeps in touch with his readers by posting to his blog, daily. Check out his website that includes the blog at: http://sites.google.com/site/tomraimbaultwritings/ Tom is always open to new friends on Facebook where he shares photos from his nature hikes, family vacations and any random thoughts throughout the day. Feel free to request him as a friend on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/#/profile.php?ref=profile&id=100000526443534
