Inferno
Look inside the supernatural world where oracles, grim reapers, Shadow Weavers, and vampires live amongst humans in plain sight. Cassia Reid, a high school teacher living in South Coast, is about to face her toughest challenge to date. An alarming vision alerts her to a horrific incident set to occur at her school that will not only endanger her own life but the safety of the students. It is now up to Cassia and her supernatural friends to investigate the prediction and figure out a way to stop it from happening. With lives at stake and hearts on the line, Cassia learns of the strength that comes from unity and that some things are entirely out of her control.
Enigma
What happens when the one person who can see everything finds a blind spot? Cassia Reid is an oracle, and in the months since developing the ability, she has become proficient at seeing people’s past and future. Then she meets Kasper Doyle, the enigmatic new teacher at school that she can’t get a read on at all. As Cassia tries to figure out why he is different, she begins having strange visions of the past and attempts to piece them together to discover the cause of a series of mysterious and sudden deaths. Emotions and tensions run high, and Cassia must learn to deny her instincts to keep herself and those around her out of harm’s way. However, she soon starts to realise that it is not as easy as she initially thought.
Divinity
As the dust settles after the school fire, an unexpected visitor appears in South Coast with an infernal warning for Cassia. Cassia Reid wants nothing more than to help others with her gift. She has lost enough people in the past, so uses her ability to see the future to do what she can to save them. That is until her visions suddenly start to cause her physical pain. As the supernatural world collides with the divine, Cassia and her friends face a diabolical enemy who is threatening them all. With the lives of everyone she loves in danger, it’s a race against time to save them from a fate worse than death. Can Cassia keep them out of harm’s way? Or will she lose everything she holds dear?
Visionary
What would you do if you could see the future? After getting corrective eye surgery, twenty-four-year-old high school teacher Cassia Reid opens her eyes to find that her vision is a lot better than she expected. Without her glasses, she can now see how people will die, including those closest to her. In an effort to save them from their grim fate, Cassia turns to Sal Vincent and his supernatural allies to learn more about her visions, including whether it is possible to change the future. But will Cassia figure it out before it’s too late?
Quake
When matters of life and death come into question, Cassia will face her toughest challenge yet. As an oracle, Cassia Reid is used to seeing more than everyone else sees, and she has become quite efficient at using her visions to navigate the unknown. But with her abilities continuing to develop, she is now not only seeing things but hearing things too. As she tries to make sense of the voices, a stranger appears with a message that will rock the foundation of everything she thought she knew. With her world expanding and realms colliding, Cassia must learn to focus and control her heightened senses in order to help her new friend, and many others, find peace. But will she?
The Genesis of the Chicago Renaissance
This study examines the genesis of Chicago's two identified literary renaissance periods (1890-1920 and 1930-1950) through the writings of Dreiser, Hughes, Wright, and Farrell. The relationship of these four writers demonstrates a continuity of thought between the two renaissance periods. By noting the affinities of these writers, patterns such as the rise of the city novel, the development of urban realism, and the shift to modernism are identified as significant connections between the two periods. Although Dreiser, Wright, and Farrell are more commonly thought of as Chicago writers, this study argues that Langston Hughes is a transitional, pivotal figure between the two periods. Through close readings and contextualization, the influence of Chicago writing on American literature--in such areas as realism and naturalism, as well as proletarian and ethnic fiction--becomes apparent.
Fluidity
A broken heart spells danger for Cassia and all that she holds dear. After the close call with Kasper, high school teacher and oracle Cassia Reid deals with the consequences of her mistake that put the lives of her friends and herself in jeopardy. With her visions compromised and her heartbroken, she seeks the company of Adrienne, a charming young maiden who Cassia soon learns there’s more to than meets the eye. As Adrienne’s ulterior motive unfolds, Cassia is forced to look inward to keep herself from facing a fate worse than death. Can she figure out how to save herself? Or will she lose the little that she has left?
