To Haunt or Be Lost
Lori doesn’t believe in ghosts, but when tragedy strikes in the family she must learn to coexist in the same home as the biggest believer of all: her creepy cousin, Agatha. Haunted by memories of their childhood sleepovers, and skeptical of her cousin’s unusual religious beliefs and witchcraft rituals, Lori doesn’t know if she can trust Agatha again. Meanwhile, Lori meets an attractive stranger on the city bus. Using art as their medium, they begin to develop an unspoken bond. But one day, the stranger is not acting quite the same, and Agatha might know more about it than Lori could ever imagine.
