Danville, Virginia native, Hope Coleman has written her first novel in E-book form entitled The Haunting. This self-published novel is her first work. The book not only details her journey from her southern roots to the still untamed beauty of her beloved Vermont. It also probes questions of her past through her character “Kalya Strange”. A past she knows through a large and gregarious family.
Through her childhood she experiences “dreams” and “visions” and one “encounter” that sets her on a lifelong course to discover her mysterious ancestry ad one especially troubling question. How does a 12 year old boy of Portuguese descent suddenly “appear” in the household and among the “belongings” of a slave master in early 1800’s?. Further, who are the Ebony, blue-eyed people of Madison, NC who call themselves the Goinstown Indians, here before the discovery of Christopher Columbus and are they her true ancestors?.

“All of us inquire throughout our lifetimes Who am I? The author says, her character goes one step further and actually finds out. Answering questions. Discovering more.

Ms. ColEman uses her inherited quick wit to take her audience into the pages of her book to show the close and personal sides of her character.

Against the backdrop of the at once the “Dirty South” and then to the breathtaking beauty that is Vermont, Ms. Coleman’s THE HAUNTING is a bold step toward her “ancestral apparitions” , and comes face to face with not the “ghosts” of her past but the spirit, souls and minds of those whose voices her mind refused to allow her to ignore.
