Almost instantaneously the features of a young boy appeared and a woman in the circle cried out "Michael! Oh my God, it's my boy Michael." "Mummy, I'm here!" the boy said in a clear unbroken voice. He was dressed in what looked like a white nightgown. He had bare arms and rather long, curly brown hair that gave him a cherubic appearance. He could easily have been an angel, except he lacked wings. He smiled at his mother and revealed a perfect set of teeth. "I've grown up a bit," he said moving closer to her. She reached out her arms to touch him but Mrs. Harris said quickly: "Let him touch you first. He may not be quite solid yet." The boy grinned:"I am, and I want to hug my mother," he said, "I want her to know I'm not really dead."

Under the Pink Light

I thoroughly enjoyed 'Under the Pink Light.' The vivid description of sights and sounds in and around the small village delivers you to the doorstep of the main characters, their friends, and aquaintances. From there, you follow them through conflicts, discoveries, new friendships, and two fact-based séances. The story is a pleasurable read, a visit to a simpler time, and a welcome break from our hurried lives of today. I do recommend this book.
