Today we have a sneak peek of Kay Darling’s book The Fool’s Journey.
Can tarot cards help a young woman whose life is not all it’s cracked up to be?
Moira is frustrated by her life and even more so because she doesn’t know what to do about it. A spur-of-the-moment decision to visit a psychic fair for a tarot reading changes everything. The reading helps her to see what she should do. When they learn she is consulting cards for guidance, Moira’s friends and family begin to believe she is losing her sanity. When she decides to quit her job, sell her house, and move away, they’re sure of it.
Can Tarot cards help Moira learn more about herself and guide her to a happier future? And what do a haunted chest and an encounter with a poltergeist have to do with Moira’s journey to find fulfilment?
This title is available from Amazon.
Excerpt from The Fool’s Journey
by Kay Darling
Moira let herself be led; up the stairs and then the tugging stopped below the loft hatch. She stood there wondering how she was going to get up there. A pole came floating through the air, one with a hook on the end. Moira had to stifle a scream as it hung there in mid-air. Gingerly, she took it and hooked it onto the mechanism on the hatch. Giving it a tug, the hatch came down with a ladder attached. Moira’s heart was in her mouth, and the palms of her hands felt sweaty. Aware of the thudding in her chest, she climbed the ladder.
It was cold in the attic. Her breath hung in the air. The solitary light bulb cast only a dim light; it rocked slightly by some unseen and unfelt force. The shadows danced. Moira took a deep breath. The laughter of earlier seemed far off. Up here, it felt eerie. The air had a metallic tang. Moira felt the tug at her clothes again and stepped forward carefully. Stooping slightly, treading only on the wooden beams, she moved carefully, questioning what she was doing. A voice, no more than a breath said, “That’s it.”
Then she saw it in front of her, despite the gloom. It glowed faintly. As she reached out and touched it, it moved. She screamed. What was in the chest?
