Lindsey R. Loucks

Leigh Baxton is scared her mom will come back from the dead - just like the prom queen did.

While the town goes crazy over the news, Leigh bikes to the local cemetery and buries some of her mom's things in her grave to keep her there. When the hot and mysterious caretaker warns her not to give gifts to the dead, Leigh cranks up her punk music and keeps digging.

Two dead sorceresses evicted the prom queen from her grave to bury someone who offered certain gifts. Bury them alive, that is, then resurrect them to create a trio of undead powerful enough to free the darkest sorceress ever.

With help from the caretaker and the dead prom queen, Leigh must find out what's so special about the gifts she gave, and why the sorceresses are stalking her and her sister. If she doesn't, she'll either lose another loved one or have to give the ultimate gift to the dead - herself.

The Grave Winner Series

Sunlight splashed on a bare arm capped with a purple sleeve covered in black dots, but that couldn't be right because I was in a grave at night, dying. A pair of vivid blue eyes met mine, framed by blonde hair. Mom. Alive. 


She stood in a field bursting with sunflowers. A light breeze that smelled like flowery perfume turned her hair and fluttered the ends of her dress. She was here, with me, just when I needed her the most. Was this heaven? Was I already dead? I reached out to make her stay at my side forever, but my hands grabbed at nothing. 


She started to smile, but it broke apart with the tears in her eyes. "I'm so sorry, Leigh. I've made so many mistakes." 


It's okay, I wanted to tell her. But bursts of color behind my eyelids were floating in front of her, hiding her from me. Mom? Her perfume still lingered in my nose, along with the soil-scented death sentence.
