Overview

SPIRIT SISTERS was inspired by the scores of women who would preface their story with 'I've hardly told anyone this, but...'. Scratch the surface and the words would tumble out; they'd give up the ghost, so to speak. In SPIRIT SISTERS you'll meet Australian women of all ages who share their very personal encounters with the supernatural. From a high-flying banking executive whose life changed forever after a visit from a bizarre, winged entity, to a mother of seven who was held and soothed by her husband five days after she'd buried him, to the woman who lost most of her family in one car accident, this book is heartbreaking, inspiring, scary and comforting. Karina Machado passes on their secrets and shares those incredible moments when someone leans in to whisper their tale and the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Whether you believe in the afterlife or not, reading this book will lead you to question your reality and wonder... what if?
