Today, I’m introducing the main characters of my September 5th release, SECRETS THROUGH TIME.
Connor Holbrook
A co-owner of CNC IT Solutions with his siblings, Nicole and Cooper, Connor combines technical expertise with a passion for urban exploration. If there’s an abandoned building or forgotten home to investigate, chances are he’s already inside, searching for clues and uncovering its history.
Nicole Holbrook-Kane
A talented graphic artist and co-owner of CNC IT Solutions, Nicole creates the eye-catching website designs, branding, and marketing materials that help bring her clients’ businesses to life.
She also possesses an extraordinary gift. Her sketches are so lifelike they could easily be mistaken for photographs. Occasionally, she sketches people and places that no one else can see.
Mitch Kane
A successful restoration expert specializing in Victorian architecture, Mitch has spent years restoring historic homes to their former glory. His interest in urban exploration began with abandoned commercial buildings, but before long, he found himself drawn to forgotten mansions and the mysteries hidden within their walls.
Cooper Holbrook
Connor’s identical twin and the third co-owner of CNC IT Solutions, Cooper is practical, logical, and often skeptical of the things his sister claims to see. Even so, when Nicole ventures into the unknown, he’s always there to watch her back and keep her safe.
Now that you’ve met the team, here’s a glimpse of the mystery that awaits them.
Past and present collide when echoes of the haunted emerge and secrets refuse to remain buried.
When Nicole, her brothers and her husband stumble upon the ruins of Milford Hollow, a ghost town long forgotten by history, they’re drawn to the only building left standing: the crumbling stone shell of Milford Manor.
Rumours circulated about the fire that devoured the town despite its closeness to Little Lake, and something unexplainable drove those who survived the inferno away.
Inside the manor’s scorched walls, Nicole senses she’s not alone. Whispers drift through the halls, and a long-faded family portrait seems to watch her every move.
As Nicole unravels the manor’s dark past, she discovers a tragedy that links her own world to the secrets of a family long dead—and learns that some fires never truly burn out.
