In Beyond Brick and Bone, Antoinette M. Schippers shares her incredible experiences of interacting with the supernatural from a young age. Fellow seekers fascinated by the other side should read it, full stop. Well done, Antoinette! --Jim Harold, host of the Paranormal Podcast and Jim Harold's Campfire Jim Harold Media, LLC Schippers' book begins with a story of things that go bump in the night and quickly evolves into a tale of family haunting, madness, and psychological trauma interlaced with a nineteenth century tale of passion and murder. She points with a sometimes trembling finger at our deepest mystery and greatest frontier: the exploration of inner space and the human heart. --Rita J. McNamara, author of Toward Balance, Walking in Circles, and Energetic Bodywork Schippers speaks with a fresh voice in her memoir of childhood trauma, describing how she transcends terror and pain by communing with her ghosts and arising as a spirit medium. Beyond Brick and Bone is a place where psychology meets the spirit world- blending who we are, where we are, and where we sometimes slip. Who would think that the spirit world could prove to be the safer place. --Katherine Maynard MA, CCC-SLP, MSW
