Abigail Lewis can’t remember a thing about the horrific car accident that killed her mother and landed her in the care of her uncle Tom when she was six years old. Eleven years later, and Abby’s life is a living hell. She’s physically abused by her alcoholic uncle and bullied at school. Since she and Tom moved to the farm six months ago, her nightmares have worsened. They somehow feel real. Like something evil is on its way. There’s no light at the end of the very dark tunnel that is her life.
Until Mike arrives.
It’s as if this mysterious boy fell from the sky. Abby can’t believe her luck when he takes a special interest in her. His unconventional and other worldly good looks immediately draw her to him, but when she realizes he has abilities far beyond that of any normal human, she questions whether he’s there to help her or harm her.
What is it about him? He’s gorgeous. He looks like a bad boy. She’s falling for him. In a big way.
And now, she’s entered a world of supernatural forces, fallen angels, demons, and even Lucifer himself. She has to save her own life and Mike’s – the heaven-sent angel who has come to protect her.
After the death of his estranged mother, Jimmy Manning returns to his hometown of Broadoaks for the first time in twenty years. He hasn't come back to pay his respects, but to make sure she is finally gone for good. That, and the fact he’s inherited the family home he hasn’t set foot in since he was sixteen. With his older brother, Jason, missing, and his younger brother, Thomas, the permanent resident of a mental facility, the arrangements all fall on Jimmy.
He would like nothing more than for the house to be gutted and burned down, but when he experiences strange goings on, he wonders if it's his emotions getting the better of him, or if something paranormal is happening in the house that caused him so much misery.
Then he hears it. The Whisper. Dig.
Jimmy has a decision to make. Turn and leave like he did twenty years ago, or listen to the whisper and trawl through the chaos of his youth to discover the demons buried there.
