Two innocent children sitting quietly in their play-house never suspect there is an evil presence about to end their lives. The peaceful town of Littleton, New Hampshire is about to be rocked. With the help of a visiting novelist named Laura, the children's spirits begin to communicate on an inexplicable level. But they have no way of warning her that more lives are in danger. A beautiful young widow, Laura is conquering her own demons. She is trying to rebuild her life after the murder of her husband on a California beach. Devil's Backbone is about coming to terms with everything that life hands you. First-time novelist L.D. Hockenberry's husband used to hunt in the town that's the setting for her book. Originally from Putnam, Connecticut, the human resources manager now makes her home in Olin, North Carolina. When she was a child in Putnam, Hockenberry lived in a haunted house located across the street from Gertrude Warner, who wrote the children's Boxcar mystery series.
