The Light at the Top of the Stairs The Light at the Top of the Stairs: Volume 1 of 5, Book 1, (Paperback)

<p>On a sultry autumn evening in Toronto in 2003, death came to Trevor Nicholson -- writer, graphic designer, championship worrier -- and changed his life in ways he never could have imagined. At twenty-six, Trevor was not having much success accepting his sexuality: he was trapped and floundering in a frustrating emotional swamp of his own making. The arrival of death gave him a few more things to worry about than being gay.</p><p></p><p>On the other side of the ocean in a picturesque English village, Cate Nightingale -- attractive young mother, recent grandmother, and lifelong psychic -- was slowly realizing that her village was sick, getting sicker by the day, dying. People were dying too, being murdered in grisly, horrific ways. By something. Some thing. A psychopathic spiritual presence that had cast a poisonous shadow over the entire village, that had tainted the fragrant rural breezes with the stench of rot and decay.</p><p></p><p>The Light at the Top of the Stairs is an epic, moving tale about good people coming together to fight fearsome evil; about love, friendship and family bonds; about ancestry, bloodlines, family trees and the hidden secrets of the past; about our human journey to self-discovery and self-acceptance and the roadblocks we unintentionally create to sabotage our progress; and about how the fear of experiencing life can sometimes be much worse than the fear of experiencing death.</p><p></p>AUTHOR'S NOTE: Volume 1 of THE LIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS is NOT a stand-alone story. Rather, it is the first installment -- ALL 5 VOLUMES NOW AVAILABLE! -- of an unforgettable tale that continues and concludes in subsequent volumes -- ALL 5 VOLUMES NOW AVAILABLE! -- also in paperback and combined-volume e-book form.<p></p><p></p><p><strong>Cover design by Borealis Creative Agency -- Toronto, Canada</strong></p>
