Haunting in Old Tailem
Haunting Clarisse #3

by Janice Tremayne
An Australian ghost town. A resident demon. Will Old Tailem town succumb to Little Charlie and his evil crew?
Clarisse realizes that running from evil is not a bad idea until she figures out you can’t hide. When some ghosts get tired of hanging around, they latch onto you. At the center of the war on evil is a historic Church that carries dark secrets within its walls. After she meets with the local Shaman, Clarisse discovers secrets with evil consequences by digging too deep into the town’s past. When matters become complicated, she visits a circus of young performers on the outskirts of town, triggering unexpected paranormal events and unleashing memories of a one-hundred-year curse. After being caught in the crossfire of a battle for evil supremacy, Clarisse confronts Little Charlie as he rallies the town’s ghosts into an impeccable evil stronghold.
Can the local Shaman and townsfolk rally in her quest to defeat the evil incarnate or will the town succumb to Little Charlie and his evil crew?
Haunting in Old Tailem is the third standalone book in the spine-chilling Haunting Clarisse supernatural horror series. If you like pulse-pounding tension, scarily dark corners, and thought-provoking dilemmas, then you’ll love Janice Tremayne’s unsettling story.
REVIEW
5 out of 5
I’ve officially fallen in love with this series. Clarisse is an amazing MC, strong, smart, and although she has her own flaws, she faces down evil spirits when she finds them. I love how easily Tremayne builds up the tension, and is able to draw you in until you’re right alongside Clarisse, and coming up for air hours later, wondering where the time went. The plot moves along at a smooth pace, and I can’t say there are any truly dull moments. Although you can read this as a standalone, you’d be missing out if you didn’t read the previous book in the series.
