The man who killed her parents and kidnapped Jane is behind bars. So it's the perfect time for Jane and her partner Ethan to set out on a road trip to unravel the secrets of her ancestry.But their journey takes a spine-chilling turn when they encounter a gang of men who stare at Jane as if they recognize her. That can only mean one thing: they've met her in a dream she has yet to experience. When the gang begins stalking her, Jane realizes she must have witnessed a deadly event. But what could it be? She slips into hiding and waits for the disturbing dream to arrive.And now her BFF, Sadie Prescott, is dating a cop whose curiosity about Jane leads him to unearth the mysterious deaths that litter her past. When his latest investigation crosses paths with Jane's stalkers, Jane must intervene and turn the skeptical cop into a believer before he kills himself and causes the deaths of his entire law enforcement team.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

JP McLean is a dynamic speak and engaging author. She began writing as a past-time, in an effort to write about an image that she had in her mind. She was once fearful that she would run out of ideas to write and diligently kept a journal.What she found out was that she loved to write and the ideas kept coming.  She shares her vision for writing and that she would write despite the size of her audience.If you are interested in honing your craft and looking for some inspiration- you have come to the right podcast!I invite you to listen!If you feel this Podcast is beneficial, I encourage you to share it, and I invite you to leave a 5-Star Review.
