Fiction, Fantasy, Romance
A supernatural journey with two unlikely ghost hunters who must battle not only spirits but their attraction to each other.
Perry Palomino is not what you would call 'ordinary'. For one thing, there's her past which she likes to pretend never happened, and then there's the fact that she sees ghosts. Luckily for her, that all comes in handy when she stumbles across Dex Foray, an eccentric producer for an upcoming web cast on ghost hunters. Even though the show's budget is non-existent and Dex himself is a maddening enigma, Perry is instantly drawn into a world that both threatens her life and seduces her with a sense of importance. Her uncle's haunted lighthouse provides the perfect catalyst and back drop for a horrific mystery that unravels the threads of Perry's fragile sanity and causes her to fall for a man, who, like the most dangerous of ghosts, may not be all that he seems.

Stunning . . . the snarkiness of Perry was enough to make me fall in love with her, and the hint of mystery surrounding chameleon-like Dex was all I needed to be completely gripped. If you like characters that will constantly surprise you, and writing that is raw, funny and creative then that should be enough for you to start reading Darkhouse. If you want to unravel two of the most complex characters and one of the most dynamic relationships you'll find in this genre then please don't delay in starting the Experiment in Terror series - Book Chick City
Karina Halle
The daughter of a Norwegian Viking and a Finnish Moomin, Karina Halle grew up in Vancouver, Canada, with trolls and eternal darkness on the brain. This soon turned into a love of
all things that go bump in the night and a rather sadistic appreciation for freaking people out. Like many of the flawed characters she writes about, Karina never knew where to find herself and has dabbled in acting, make-up artistry, film production, screenwriting, photography, travel writing and music journalism. She eventually found herself in the pages of the very novels she
wrote (if only she had looked there to begin with).
Karina holds a screenwriting degree from Vancouver Film School and a Bachelor of Journalism from TRU. Her travel writing, music reviews/interviews and photography have appeared in publications such as Consequence of Sound, Mxdwn and GoNomad Travel Guides. She currently lives on an island off the coast of British Columbia with her fianc and her rescue pup, preparing for the zombie apocalypse.
