Anderson and Yvonne K Anderson Debuting their paranormal thriller series, these locally written books cannot be missed! The five-book series has been published, and authors Johnathan and Yvonne are in the process of promoting the first two books of the series.

A summer movie turns into a roller coaster ride of a lifetime and childhood myths come to a twisted reality. Will the group be able to stick together to survive what is ahead?

“Death Toll: Thrill to Kill” Death is in the spoken word. Alice, a girl from Hamilton, Ontario finds out she has a special power, it's the power to kill someone without touching them. All she has to so is utter the words Nanananana and visualize who she wants to kill and how and it happens. Follow Alice as she discovers these new powers and even something more sinister. Can she be stopped?

These two books go together as both main characters meet throughout the series. A creative mind from a young age, Johnathan decided to write a book after being scared of what was in the dark Years later, one book grew into a series. For Yvonne, inspiration came from the many books she has read. She started writing at 16 years old, and through her creativity decided to write a book and watched it turn into a series
