At twenty-six, Trevor was not having much success accepting his sexuality: he was trapped and floundering in a frustrating emotional swamp of his own making. The arrival of death gave him a few more things to worry about than being gay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the other side of the ocean in a picturesque English village, Cate Nightingale -- attractive young mother, recent grandmother, and lifelong psychic -- was slowly realizing that her village was sick, getting sicker by the day, dying. People were dying too, being murdered in grisly, horrific ways. By something. Some thing. A psychopathic spiritual presence that had cast a poisonous shadow over the entire village, that had tainted the fragrant rural breezes with the stench of rot and decay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Light at the Top of the Stairs is an epic, moving tale about good people coming together to fight fearsome evil; about love, friendship and family bonds; about ancestry, bloodlines, family trees and the hidden secrets of the past; about our human journey to self-discovery and self-acceptance and the roadblocks we unintentionally create to sabotage our progress; and about how the fear of experiencing life can sometimes be much worse than the fear of experiencing death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eAUTHOR'S NOTE: \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume 5 of \u003cem\u003eTHE LIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS\u003c\/em\u003e is \u003cem\u003eNOT\u003c\/em\u003e a stand-alone story.
