A flash of pale colors moving in the shadows.I spun around.She was there. The woman--the ghost. The width of her skirt blocked the path in front of me completely. In the low light, it was obvious that she gave off a pale blue glow of her own, a light that seemed to undulate through her."Go away!" I said, as if she were a stray cat. "Go! Leave me alone!"A ripple seemed to move through her form, causing her glow to sputter and spark. I got the distinct impression that I'd made her angry."Please," I said. "Please move. Let me go."Finally, she moved--Toward me.I tried to back away, but she kept coming, closer and closer. Finally, I had backed myself into a corner, where two walls of bones met.She stood above me, cold and imperious, looking down.She opened her mouth to speak.      Praise for Katie Alender:"In the classic tradition of Stephen King, Alender will have you sleeping with the lights on." -- Margaret Stohl and Kami Garcia, NYT Bestselling authors of the Beautiful Creatures series
