edric owl house

Black Hollow is a town built on secrets, where the past lingers like smoke and whispers of the dead weave through the wind. When Evelyn Drake, a 32-year-old trauma psychologist, inherits her estranged grandmother's abandoned estate, she plans to sell it and never look back. But the house, once ravaged by an unexplained fire, holds a history as twisted as the town itself. Evelyn soon discovers that her grandmother, Vivienne Hale, was a Soul Keeper, a guardian of spirits trapped between life and death. Her return stirs something ancient and angry. The spirits of Black Hollow awaken, their vengeance unresolved. When burned corpses begin appearing, each victim bearing the same eerie mark, Evelyn realizes she’s entangled in a crime that refuses to stay buried. Teaming up with Detective Ethan Calloway, a hardened cop haunted by his own past, Evelyn must uncover a decades-old conspiracy, a forgotten fire, and the true purpose of the Soul Keeper’s legacy. But not every ghost seeks peace. Some crave revenge. And in the ashes of the past, a killer still walks among the living.

On the day Jamie lost his mother to cancer, he also lost his only accommodation and his girlfriend. Years of torture, humiliation and servitude from his stepfather and stepbrothers, Jamie was nothing more than a miserable bastard to the Reynolds, one they so desperately needed to do away with. His mother’s death was their perfect opportunity as his stepfather evicted him from his house, abused him and his dead mother publicly, and ordered the doctor to sell her corpse to organ harvesters. His stepbrothers made a spectacle of him and his dead mother, treating them as though they were worse than animals. And to crown their hall of humiliation, they took his girlfriend and cost him his job. With everything lost, there was nothing to live for anymore. Jamie owed the hospital over $100,000 and his boss over the same amount. His life was at risk, his existence was meaningless, and everything was set against him… Except for a sudden alert of $10,000,000,000 and a call from the world’s richest and most powerful man, claiming to be his grandfather. Jamie wasn’t a bastard after all; he had a family—a rich and powerful family at that—and he was their rightful heir. With a net worth of tens of trillions of dollars and the power to shut down the world with the snap of his finger… What fate awaits all those who did him wrong? What end has he destined for those who mocked his dead mother and her dignity? What was in the heart of the trillionaire for those who made his life hell and paraded their measly change over him? Revenge is best served cold…Or whatever temperature the Rich and Powerful Jamie Ashford wants!
