Welcome Back to the World of Onyx Webb. This is Book Three. (Episodes 7, 8, and 9) One reviewer describes it as: “A suspenseful ghost story with a light touch of horror, a heavy dose of gruesome, and a cast of characters where some, but not all, are exceptionally creepy.” The Onyx Webb series follows the unusual life of Onyx Webb along with a central group of characters in various locations and times. The billionaire Mulvaney family, piano prodigy Juniper Cole and her brother Quinn, paranormal show hosts Cryer and Fudge, and a few others make up the core of the series. Written like a book version of a supernatural soap opera, each character’s story moves forward with most every episode. It may appear that the characters are entirely unrelated and yet episode by episode, the connections will become clearer. Like being an inch away from a spider web, with each book, the web will move further and further away revealing the full story of every character and most importantly, the stunning conclusion for Onyx Webb herself. In Book Three… It’s in the late 30’s and Onyx and Ulrich have started a new life in Crimson Cove, Oregon. It’s 2010, and Koda Mulvaney is picking up the pieces of the latest tragedy and still looking for the girl in the mirror. Paranormal show hosts Cryer and Fudge have a run in with a ghost at the Open Arms. It’s the 60’s and Declan Mulvaney is building the family fortune – a good intent with horrible consequences.
No one expected a severely burned and highly medicated woman to attempt an escape. No one was even watching her at all.An hour later, Onyx found herself walking barefoot through the woods in a complete state of utter delirium, following the sound of the ocean waves to keep herself heading west and using the light from the full moon to guide the way.How far could it be from the hospital to the lighthouse? Onyx wondered. She had no idea. Her mind was incapable of producing answers.Onyx could see her breath in the night air as she stumbled forward and realized that—in her desperation to get back to the lighthouse—she’d failed to consider a variety of important things, including how cold it was outside.Onyx had also forgotten to put on her shoes.Six hours later, Onyx emerged from the woods and stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Clayton Daniels Jr. —Sheriff Daniels’s son, the deputy sheriff—standing guard at the lighthouse door.No, no, no.Onyx staggered back into the woods, exhausted and deflated. She lowered herself to the ground and leaned against a tall pine. What do I do now, Daddy?From where she was sitting, Onyx could see out over the cove, the full moon hanging in the sky like a giant white Christmas ornament. She was so tired, racked with pain, and delirious from the lack of energy.Katherine, if you are truly an angel sent by God to do his work here on Earth, I could use your help.Then Onyx heard them.Wolves howling somewhere off in the distance.
“The human mind and body have near-infinite capacities to do a myriad of things. One of those capacities, unfortunately, is the capacity for regret. I regret not waiting to find true love. Having been in such a rush to live, I forgot to be true to myself. I regret not staying in touch with the people I loved, chief among them my father. I regret believing I could find peace and happiness in any place other than within myself. I regret not having the courage to find my courage sooner. I regret having traded so much of my time in exchange for money to purchase things I did not want or need”.
