Description


Based on a TRUE story: When the unseen collides with the world of the living, the girl with no name awakens to a gift that changes everything. In her twenties, she discovers the ability to tap into her sixth sense — a gift that becomes her most cherished possession. Through it, she reconnects with her brother Gregory she tragically lost. He is more than a guiding presence; he is a messenger, leading souls into her care. Together, they become conduits for spirits longing to give a message to the loved ones they left behind.

At the heart of her journey is a long‑buried mystery — a death wrapped in secrecy. Was it murder or misfortune? As clues surface, one chilling phrase echoes through the pages: Who said FOUND DEAD? And another question rises again and again, whispered by the spirits themselves: Who’s picking me up? Its meaning remains elusive until the dead reveal the truth in their own time.

Years later, the girl makes a life‑altering choice: she moves into a dilapidated 1800s Victorian with her consort, an Old‑World builder with an artisan’s soul. What begins as a simple house flip becomes something far more profound. Beneath the peeling paint and forgotten history is a hidden portal — a passage woven into the very bones of the house, connecting this world to the OTHERSIDE. Spirits slip through and gather in the home’s old speakeasy bar, sharing their stories, their warnings, and their wisdom with the girl who plays the role of the barkeep.

The voices that step forward are anything but silent. From the ghost of the tycoon Leander Stone to beloved PETS, their messages span decades of emotion, mystery, and revelation. {{chills}} Your loved ones are standing by.

So fun and easy to read I don’t have a lot of free time so this book is perfect because it is made up of many independent stories. This allows you to read one or two stories at a time. My mother-in-law and aunt came to visit. They both started to read the book and loved it so much that one of them stole it and took it home with them! Haha! Buying my new book now so I can continue the journey! Read more

The Girl did it! If you've ever lost someone close to you, you know the longing for any sign that they might still be with you. While I’ve never been blessed with the gift of communicating with those who have passed on, I’m in awe of those who can. When my father died, I became obsessed with reading books by people who claim to communicate with the other side. Of course, my scientific mind always questioned the validity of what I was reading, but my heart was searching for hope. I met the author, The Girl With No Name years ago through an online chat group mentioned in the book. Some of the stories we experienced together, including mine, are featured in its pages. The girl took an interest in my dog, Ziggy, while he was still healthy. I had shared a photo of him in the chat. When Ziggy unexpectedly fell ill and passed, she was able to share very specific and meaningful messages from him. I won’t reveal what they were as everything is in the book, but it was deeply moving. I’m also familiar with several other stories in the book. I witnessed some of them unfold in real time. As with my own story, I won’t share too much here to avoid spoilers. But I’ll never forget the day Jamie showed me a photo of a famous actress—the one the girl told him his future wife would resemble. It was pretty shocking when, not long after, he showed me a photo of the woman he had just met and would eventually marry. Wow. The girl had told us personal stories about a close family member. We didn’t ask questions as it was her choice how much she wanted to share. It was incredible to finally “meet” them through the pages of the book. Their close relationship continued even after they passed, and I truly felt their presence as his story unfolded. It was a beautiful read. I hope the girl writes another book soon…and shares pictures of the house! Read more

Dead Men Drink I was very impressed with this book. It brought clarity to many things about the afterlife. It’s difficult to put down because it’s written in a unique way with ghosts authoring some chapters. I plan to re-read it. Pick up a copy. You won’t be disappointed. Read more

Ghost stories? Yes and No.... It;'s more about life ---and connections without limit. All the human nuances of emotion-- fright, laughter, wondering, asking aching for an unending thread of life here and before and beyond. The need to remember and be remembered, valued, felt and loved. Read more
