Vera’s story is about the sister of Reuben Morales, the main character in The Last Noel.
About the book–
The ghost won’t leave her alone and she’ll do anything to quiet it.
Almost anything.
​
Vera “Vega” Morales seems to have it all—a promising career with the police, a charming boyfriend, and a cozy life with her purring cat. But behind the perfect facade is a secret she can’t escape. A ghost is stalking her, whispering in her ear, disrupting her life with its dark and restless presence.
​
When her boyfriend brings home a Bible, the ghost’s reaction is terrifying—and its intentions become clear.
