Publisher's summary

A wish is the strongest form of magic. It's also the most dangerous.

For psychic Charlie Payne being haunted is an everyday experience. When Charlie agrees to help her cousin forage for furniture at an auction she expects to steer her cousin clear of any lingering spirits. But a child's wish makes that impossible. When her cousin brings home an object with a ghost-child attached to it, Charlie finds herself drawn into a 60-year-old mystery.

Her instinct is to help the child move toward the light. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that some things should stay buried, because a spirit guarding a secret will do whatever it takes to protect it, including kill.

Shadow Child is the sixth book in the Witches of Palmetto Point series. If you like spine-tingling supernatural suspense, witches, ghosts, and other paranormal creatures then you will love the Witches of Palmetto Point series.

We learn about family..

Finally - more about the family!! Ruby is more at the center and not as in the previous books, but people aren’t as they appear. What you’ll find; relationships deepen, jobs are on the line, more spirit encounters, and Jack needs more than one “Jack” because of Tom - and let’s just say- you never know what kind of wishing will get Ruby into trouble. Don’t worry though - some ghosts still hang around..Another amazing story - let’s go audible release the rest already!

Just keep reading, or listening so I don’t get away any spoilers!

Love Charlie

Love
This series blends supernatural with ghosts and crime in an ordinary way (not so much fantasy). Recommend you read books in order.

Awesome series

The characters & how they band together no matter what for the good of the family.
I can't help but love the way Charlie stands up for her son no matter what. Against
x-husband & especially his possible 2nd wife but keeping Evan foremost in her heart. I love her courage (really all of her cousins too) in all her relationships & magic and enjoy seeing it getting stronger & stronger.

I really admire the narrator & the different voices, the Charlie said, Jen said, etc. I can't imagine how difficult this can be. I do not care for how whiny, immature & young some of the women sound (especially Daphne) but hey I enjoy the books so I'm not going to let a little thing like this deter me from continuing to listen on with this series.

great story... narrator is rough

I love this series. The characters are interesting and the stories lines are great blend of Fantasy and reality. The only negative for me is the narrator. Why do all the men sound like they have bad NY accents and all the females sound like little girls except for Charlie. Many times i couldn't tell who was supposed to be speaking because everyone sounded the same.

Shadow Child

Well, Wendy, I am enthralled with this family, friends and familiars. It’s like going home, sitting down and listening to the days happenings.
I am starting on the next book right now.

Good book but terrible narrator

I’m so disappointed. The narrator is so annoying. Her voice for Charlie and the male characters are fine. BUT…. Jen, Lisa, Daphne, 13 yo Evan and 6 yo Ruby all sound like they should be part of Alvin and the Chipmunks. They literally all sound the same - ridiculously high voice for grown women. You can’t tell the difference between 6 yo Ruby and Lisa - a professional female attorney. This narrator does not do the book justice. I’d be interested in going forward with the other books in the series but I couldn’t possibly listen to any more baby talking characters. I’d rather listen to nails on a chalkboard.
I suggest reading the books yourself as the stories are great and the author is very talented.

great books, some storylines are hard to tolerate

Jason and Lisa are hard characters to tolerate. they are perfect as a couple, the selfishness in each should prove interesting.
