Banshee Rising

"YOU’RE SUCH A FREAK, CAITLYN MCCABE!"

She sees ghosts. Everywhere. All the time. It’s a pain.

Caitlyn never asked to see see floating nuns, dark highwaymen, and phantom warriors. She did not ask to have different-colored eyes or be attracted to haunted "Magic Man" Danny from school. But her gift is undeniable, forcing Caitlyn to share her life with a host of quirky spirits as she tries to navigate a "normal" day of bullies, boys, and Gran’s bad cooking. And then Professor Sackimum Brody steps into her life and nothing will be the same again. Mortal yet mysterious, the Professor seems to know far more about Caitlyn and her lost parents than he reveals, even as he guides her to understanding the secret of her gift. When at last he offers a glimpse into a deeper realm, one where an ancient evil is stirring, Caitlyn is plunged towards an impossible truth and a threat to her worlds. To defeat what is rising from Ireland’s haunted heart, Caitlyn McCabe must face an adventure that is, literally, life and death.

Riley Cain was born in Ireland, so was already pretty cool before becoming a writer. More importantly a keen reader, Riley has a special love for collecting classic ghost stories, only equalled by a fondness for watching old scary movies at Halloween – in the dark! It was these interests, combined with a passion for wacky words and ridiculous rhymes that led to the creation of Riley’s first collection of fun and frights for kids, 'Halloween House'.
