Tangled Web of Friends: Book IV - The Hollow (Paperback or Softback)

In the midst of a heat wave, while fighting with her parents after revealing she knows about Ethan, the ringing of a telephone will sound the alarm for the death of Josie's beloved Aunt Pauline. And when other secrets are revealed, a chain of events will be set in motion that will threaten to tear apart Josie's life. Her dad thinks she's crazy, Jenna isn't speaking to her, and two of her guides have announced their departure, leaving Josie feeling alone, abandoned, and unsure of everything and everyone.

Among these tangled disasters Josie will find new friends, mentors, and long-sought connections to her roots, one of which comes in the form of an attractive teenage boy who may just be the distraction she needs from her unrequited love for Simon. But she will also face her toughest paranormal challenge yet in the menacing shadows and twisted vines of a defunct roadside amusement park. Can Josie and her friends overcome the elusive force and win the battle against their own personal demons? Can relationships that were severed by secrets and angry words said in the heat of the moment ever be healed? Will life ever be the same for anyone in this Tangled Web of Friends?
