The Corpse Door
The Corpse Door is the first Novel in the Mabel Shirley Case Files.
In a world divided by life and afterlife, only one voice can restore the balance.
A devastating attack on an isolated home leaves a family slaughtered and a newborn orphaned. The quiet English village of Easterwich reels from the tragedy—but the truth lies far deeper than anyone suspects. Behind the horror, something ancient stirs—an unseen force awakening through blood, magic, and memory.
As the villagers search for answers, they uncover a terrifying secret: the return of an exiled dictator and her spectral slave army—the Tyrwraith. These otherworldly horrors serve a darker will from beyond the veil, and at the heart of their power lies The Corpse Door—an ethereal portal between realms long thought dormant.
When the past bleeds into the present, the villagers must persuade a reluctant hero to confront his forgotten lifetimes and reclaim the powers he once wielded. But with a vengeful queen rising in the shadows and the balance between worlds teetering, time is running out.
