An Unhappy Medium
Isadora.
Shunned, misunderstood and haunted.
Literally.
Isadora has seen ghosts her whole life. Constantly surrounded by them wherever she goes, life feels it’s a never-ending procession of spirits, all desperate for help she doesn’t want, or know, how to give.
Tragedy strikes Isadora, and she finds herself on the run from her community. It’s not long before she takes refuge in the ghost-filled halls of the long-abandoned Archer Estate. A house with a very strange, very strong connection to Isadora herself.
As Isadora explores the estate’s dark past, she discovers it may also hold the key to her ability.
Author Bio
Kate Dakin
Kate Dakin is a 25-year-old author who lives in Western Junction, central Tasmania, with her mother, father and (before they left home to begin their own life journeys) her brothers, Aaron and Jared.
Kate’s love for literature and storytelling began at a young age, and she passed many hours of her childhood and teenage years writing, in her own words, ‘short stories, lengthy stories, absolute gibberish and, occasionally, something more’.
Kate’s fascination for old-fashioned haunted houses, as well as her love of classic horror stories, inspired her to write this, her debut novel.
When she’s not writing, Kate studies Education at the University of Tasmania, works part-time as a receptionist in the dental and veterinary industries and loves spending quality time with her expert writing partner and loyal companion, Columbus the cat, whose quirky personality provided inspiration for one particular character in the book. No prizes for guessing who!
