Beginnings

Two best friends, a handyman and strange noises over the baby monitor. Things are about to get magical.

Erica Murray comes from a family of witches, growing up speaking to spirits, but it's a career in marketing that she's after. When she's turned down for promotion yet again, she realises it's time for something new.

No, not new. It's time to embrace who she really is.

Her best friend, Jess, has a new mortgage to pay and a daughter to raise but that doesn't mean she's not up for a new adventure. Whether that's a paranormal investigation agency with Erica or finding out more about the handyman next door.

Their first potential client is a grieving father, fighting to keep his sanity and raise his baby son amid shadows, crackles on the baby monitor and what he swears is his late wife's voice.

Erica and Jess aren't the only ones searching for answers. Someone else is on the hunt. Someone who Erica can't get out of her thoughts. Someone whose identification is strangely dated 11 years in the future.

Beginnings is the first book in Murray and Tidswell Paranormal Investigations, a series of witches, fae, spirits and things that lurk on the edges. Bring your own sage.

'Fascinating concept, I possibly read it too quick trying to get to the next revelation all the time!' ★★★★★

'Beginnings is absolutely brilliant. I'm always a little skeptical when it comes to anything paranormal. I must admit Nice handles it all brilliantly, and you're drawn in with the opening line. You can't help but fall in love with Erica and Jess. Once you start reading, it's hard to put this book down, even for snack breaks!' The Faerie Review ★★★★★
