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.

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Hello to March! And hello to you Reader! I have a special treat for you today–a short autobiographical story I wrote about a life-changing experience I had as a little girl in Japan. It’s a bit sensitive, showing parts of my character I sure can’t shake. But it was quite formative. If I hadn’t survived, you wouldn’t be getting this email today.

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Hi again Reader! I’m not sure why, but I have trouble using the word “The End” at the end of a story.

We’ve been in the midst of a torrent of rain here in Izmir–great for the olive trees, apricot trees, and grapevines, but terrible for the dogs. This is the second greatest rainfall in 88 years of recorded measurement. I calculated the other day to learn that there has been a total of about 1.5 Olympic-sized swimming pools full of water dumped on our farm since the beginning of the year. Wet and rainy,…
