About the author

Hello and welcome! Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I have five published books in the Haunted Historical Mystery Series and will have two more published in 2024 – Seraphim and A Wiccan Haunting. In this series I endeavor to take my readers on a journey around the United States and around the world to be fascinated by our history in a series of chilling books I hope you will love.

In my standalone book, A Haunted Madness, I use a blend of mystery and paranormal elements to weave together secrets and revelations in a gripping story. I hope that you will enjoy this book of intrigue and suspense that will keep you turning the pages until the very end.

When I'm not writing, my husband and I are camping, roasting marshmallows and enjoying family with our two cats, Jelly Bean and Smokey. Any questions or comments?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Disappearance in Hockomock Swamp truly left me speechless. I enjoyed every moment of this story from beginning to end and couldn’t put it down—I’m still amazed I finished it in just four days! One character that really stood out to me was Winston, who reminded me so much of my dog Romer, who passed away eight years ago. His presence in the story brought back a wave of emotions and touched me deeply.

This book has earned a permanent place in my heart. Just like Regina Wixon’s first book, this second installment completely enchanted me. I’m beyond excited to continue the series and can’t wait to dive into The Caretaker.

Disappearance in Hockomock Swamp is the kind of story that touches your soul and stays with you long after the final page. I truly felt like I was part of the story, walking alongside the characters. I was very satisfied with the ending—things were resolved in a meaningful way, and I was happy to see Anne continue her work at the castle.

This is a must-read for anyone who enjoys supernatural mysteries.

Set against the eerie backdrop of a mysterious swamp, the story follows Anne Wilcox, a recent graduate tasked with archiving the treasures of a secluded castle. As she delves deeper into her work, she uncovers ancient secrets and ghostly mysteries. This novel, part of the *Haunted Historical Mystery Series*, masterfully intertwines spectral phenomena with historical elements, making it a compelling read for fans of mystery and history. Anne’s journey to uncover truths and resolve the unrest of spirits is filled with chilling scenes and unexpected twists, creating a deeply engaging narrative with well-developed characters.

This is the second book by this author I have read. It was a heart-stopping story involving a swamp with an old castle that is haunted, of course. That is not to say it is derivative or boring. Nothing could be further from the truth. Be sure you are comfortable when you start this book because you will be reading for awhile.

Awesome book and series

Just as Haunting in the Louisiana Mist this book from the beginning brings history and the characters to life. This story takes place east of Boston in a castle filled with a dark history and souls lost in the swamps. I would recommend this book and I can’t wait to start a new book in this series

Read them all

Now I'll wait for the next Historical Mystery coming in January 2025. There is no need to read them in order of publication. This is a really good series.
