FROM THE MOMENT Shelby steps across the threshold, she senses a dark, lurking presence.

She doesn’t like the house, but her mom does… it’s her parents’ dreamhouse, but to Shelby it's a living nightmare.

Not long after moving in, disturbing events shatter her expectations of a peaceful and fun summer. Around the corner from her room, when darkness falls, a thing Shelby could never have imagined finds its way into the center of the house. It’s beyond the worst of her imagination.

The sinister entity creeps into the windowless room; it’s targeting her, but she doesn’t know why.

This is the summer she learns monsters are real while discovering some kinds of fear can be paralyzing.


She can’t run away and leave her little brother and sister vulnerable.

She can’t tell others about the menacing intruder without sounding insane.

She won’t jeopardize those she loves.

BUT…

She can do her best to fight back.

She can study every detail of the thing stalking her.

She can take steps to prevent or escape its attacks.

Shelby must figure out a way to keep the shadow from feeding on her fear. She’s determined to fight this indefinable evil, but she remains alone in the battle while suffering from insomnia and anxiety provoked by the shadow.

Can she survive the attacks? CAN SHE PROTECT herself and her family from an indescribable being that lacks flesh and blood?

Where are the survival guides or rules on how to live alongside a demon, ghost, or whatever paranormal threat is slinking into the living room?

Lana R. Black

Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.
Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Lana enjoys writing from home, surrounded by towering trees in the Big Thicket, a dreamy writer's retreat. Her stories range from romance with all its challenges and beauty to horror-invoking tales of the paranormal. Regardless of the genre, she writes relatable characters who must face hurdles with an irregular twist.

Some of Lana's personal journeys include living abroad for about five years between Scotland and Germany. She enjoys traveling, but is content to be at home writing, gaming, gardening, or dining outside with her hubby and their two dogs, one an Aussie and the other a Jindo-Terrier mix.

Lana's professional background as a businesswoman includes more than two decades as a Litigation Support Specialist, Real Estate Broker, and/or independent contractor. She's contracted with major corporations, small businesses, law firms, and private contractors to handle marketing/advertising, technical writing assignments, and she's been liable as lead specialist/contractor for files amounting to multi-millions of dollars. Her career has been demanding and exciting, but she's returned to her first love of writing fiction, usually in the historic, thriller/horror, paranormal, and/or romance genres, often with two or more of these genres converging within a story.

Lana R. Black hopes you'll enjoy her series, THE SHADOW OF CHANNELWOOD, which follows a teenager and her family as they move to a small Texas town and into what seems like a dream home, but not quite. Soon after they move in, Shelby's nerves begin to unravel after she discovers a sinister danger lurking across the threshold...

5.0 out of 5 stars Imagination? Coincidence? Reality?

Teenager Shelby and her family have moved into a new house. She should be excited for a new start and new surroundings. But a shocking unexplainable dark force within the house kept her from doing so. Not to mention that her intuition soon kicks into high gear.

Seeming so much older than her character age, Shelby is compassionate, fearful, petrified, and loyal…protecting her family from this unknown energy only she experiences. As time goes on, the overwhelming strain takes its toll as she keeps the secret to herself. Somehow, she’d have to take control of the evil entity making its presence exclusive to her. Yet, how?

Then one night, alarmingly, the evil spirit infringes upon more than just her. The incident proved beyond comprehension, revealing a shocking dilemma no one could have guessed. Stay tuned for the outcome!

The author does a great job of putting the reader into this riveting and suspenseful story. It will keep you captivated…and undoubtedly turning page after page.

This book is extremely character driven, and an easy read. Once I started, I couldn’t put it down! I feel this book is a good read for any and everybody. I love how it’s even inclusive and includes a disabled character, who is strong! Such a breath of fresh air! Get the book and read it, you won’t regret it!
