Thanks, flesco, and Tristan is starting to fit in nicely. The other situation is an unusual, and it's good that Graham could explain the cause and that the family spirits are keeping Hubbard and Abernathy in check, but what will happen next? Will more attacks take place or will they be able to get rid of these unwanted visitors. Stay tuned, because it may take a few chapters to iron this out.
Yes, Graham's ability has predicted events that they would rather have avoided, but he's also informed them of situations they wouldn't have otherwise know about. It has been both a bane and a boon.
Yes, even though Sally and Steve mostly try to guide the boys to the Hotel that they feel will fit in, sometimes things still go awry. I'd heard they had implants for Kevin's situation, but I wasn't sure I wanted to put him through that multiple times. I knew a couple of boys with one testicle over the years, but those were because they hadn't dropped, but they survived with only one. Thanks for the feedback.
@hobo Yes, problems do arise and sometimes we aren't able to deal with them. We can only hope that this will be a wake up call, rather than a sign of what the future holds - or worse.
I was hoping the readers might think it was Tristan's parents, especially his dad, so this little misdirection paid off. Obviously it took Hubbard and Abernathy some time to figure out how they could interact with the living, but once they had that problem solved, it seems that they've come back seeking revenge. Thank goodness the family has Graham to help them solve problems with the supernatural. Thanks for the feedback.
James, with so many characters in this story it's not easy to bring them all back into the limelight. Sometimes there will just be a brief mention of how they're doing, but you will see Nicky and Jordan back in this series, although only briefly. Thanks again for the feedback.
James, thank you for the high praise and I'm glad you are enjoying this series. I'm not sure how long it may continue, however, since each book takes a lot out of me, and if you've looked at my profile you've seen that I'm not as young as when I started this. Thanks again and we'll see what the future holds.
I agree with your comments, but you must remember that Ricky knew Josh before this, since he attended Josh's school and they got along fairly well. Danny, on the other hand, had a rough situation with his dad, and having Ricky as an example, he was thrilled to have a positive relationship with another male who was now taking the place of his dad.
James, thank you for the feedback. Yes, I think we're all sad when the little birdies leave the nest, but that's another stage in the circle of life. The situation with Sam and Grant needs to be resolved, so we'll see what happens. I'm glad you're enjoying this series and I hope that continues, and I look forward to hearing from you again.
