Journey across the miles to encounter haunted streets and highways,
railways and bridges, and even the friendly skies! In this
collection of paranormal tales, the spirits don't sit still. They
ride the rails of ghostly trains and sit behind the wheels of
spectral autos. From haunted bridges, ocean liners, and stage
coaches to ghostly hitchhikers and cursed cars, the entities in
this book like to travel! Meet a ghost who walks the Titanic
exhibit - is he still looking for the sunken ship? A lovely
temptress in Pennsylvania may lure you to your doom at the
Birdsboro Bridge and she may even come up to your car to talk for a
bit. Seattle's underground labyrinth of streets may beckon you -
beware, these ghosts from the 1800s are not camera shy. The spirits
of Flight 401 will be on board, too, welcoming you to this tour of
haunted travels. So hang on tight as you travel along the haunted
highways and byways to spend time with ghostly travelers.

In many ways, Tariq Karim is an average teenager. Fourteen can a
confusing age for a boy on the verge of becoming a man, as changes
morph his body and mind into something even he doesn't recognize.
Tariq's experience, however, is very different from his friends.
Along with the many physical changes he's going through, he's also
discovering that he has some strange, new abilities-and he's got
good reason to keep these abilities a secret.
He and his widowed mother are on the run, hiding from enemies he
can't really understand or predict. Tariq and his mom have finally
found what they hope is a safe haven in a small, quiet town. His
mother has even found romance and a great new teaching job. Things
seem to be settling down, but then Tariq starts getting
premonitions and warnings that frighten him.
One day, one such premonition impels him to stop his friend's
father from crossing the train tracks at precisely the right
moment-saving his life. Tariq's secret is out, and his life will
never be the same. So begins his fascinating and frightening
journey to purpose. And suddenly, the quiet and anonymous life he
and his mother were building come crashing to an end as their
enemies find them again.
For a young man who wants to find his place in the world, are
these gifts a blessing or a curse?
