Ribbons of Daylight
Since moving to her allegedly haunted house, Helen is used to all the oddities that occur in her life. Keeping these things from doing harm is a continual challenge for her and her friends and family.
This group of loved ones had grown to include not just "ordinary" supernatural beings, but also ghost dogs and undead cats as well. All these characters sometimes help solve problems; at other times, they cause them.

"'I'm hallucinating,' Mandi said. 'No, I'm not. That window is definitely broken.'
'Tell me what happened,' I said.
'It's crazy!'
'Mandi, remember where you are. Is it crazy or just a little more unusual than our normal level of unusual?'"

"'What's up with Sam?' I asked.
The Golden Retriever was not his usual, exuberant self. 'He's sad,' Katie said. 'Rags is missing.' I was used to weird things, but I needed a moment for this one. 'We can't see Rags; he's a ghost. How do we know he's missing?'" ~ Ghost Tail |
"'Could that happen?' Katie asked.'To a dog?'
'His being possessed is unlikely,' I said, doubtfully. 'But it's the kind of thing that happens around here; around us,' Katie said. 'Ghost dogs, animated skeletons...why not demonic possession?'" ~ Schrodinger's Dog |
"'Well, this could make for some interesting shenanigans,' Patrick said.
I groaned. 'Right. Let's take the bones of the local, evil witch and go hide them somewhere in the neighborhood. Does Rags realize this is not a game?'
'Hes a dog,' Caleb said. 'Everything is a game.'
Rags was also a ghost. Whatever the witch's ghost did to retaliate probably wouldn't affect him as badly as it could those of us still living."
