From the time she was a child, Rory Campbell was able to communicate with the spirits and as an adult she used her abilities to find ghosts and send them to the other side of the veil. The town of Winding Falls hires Rory to exorcise a ghost so they can make a tourist attraction out of his house.

It doesn't take long for Rory to be able to communicate with Lachlan MacGregor, the former owner of the house, who died over two hundred and fifty years ago. Lachlan fascinates Rory and she wants to help him pass on, but fears her heart will break in two when he does. She finds a spell that will make him solid in this dimension and the pair fall ever deeper into love, never realizing a spirit from the past is now in the present, waiting for the right time to strike out at Lachlan.

THE HAUNTING OF RORY CAMPBELL is a spine-tingling ghost story imbued with a hefty dose of romance and a touch of suspense. Katriena Knights is a master at characterizations and has crafted an intriguing secondary subplot that leads directly and seamlessly into the main story line. Ms. Knights is a gifted storyteller, who shines as a bright star in the paranormal sky.
