The Veil is breaking. Only they can hold it together.
Clara and Lily Ashford never asked to become guardians of a secret older than time. But when a haunted dollhouse and a mysterious lockbox pull them into the fading Veil between worlds, the sisters are thrown into a fight against shadows, spirits, and choices that could change everything.
The Veil is unraveling, and its anchors—the hidden points that keep the balance between worlds intact—are weakening. To protect their family, and maybe reality itself, the sisters must uncover the truth about the anchors before the fractures spread too far. But the deeper they search, the more dangerous the questions become:
Who will you save, and who will you leave behind?
Full of chilling mystery, heart-pounding adventure, and the unshakable bond of sisterhood, Spirit Seekers: Book 1 is perfect for fans of Coraline, Stranger Things, and Goosebumps.
Some secrets are buried for a reason.
After their first encounter with the supernatural, sisters Lily and Clara hoped life would return to normal. Instead, Greenwood Cemetery begins to change—old ground shifts, forgotten markers reappear, and signs point to a hidden boundary coming back to life.
Lily can sense something stirring beneath the earth, while Clara uncovers a pattern connecting multiple sites across the cemetery. As the sisters investigate, they learn that the Veil has permanently sharpened their connection to the unseen—and that the boundary was never meant to be maintained by adults alone.
With danger growing and guidance fading, Lily and Clara must work together to uncover the truth behind a long-abandoned ritual before something sealed away is released.
Spirit Seekers: The Keeper’s Warning is a suspenseful middle-grade paranormal mystery about sisterhood, responsibility, and facing what waits just beyond the Veil.
