“By Your Side is a riveting trip through paranormal mayhem… Giunta’s endearing, determined characters encounter spirits both benign and fierce… “Page-turner” may be a book-review cliché, but it fits By Your Side from start to finish.”—Howard Weinstein, NYT Bestselling Author and longtime Star Trek writer.
While haunted by visions of her brother’s suicide, psychic-medium Miranda Lorensen is called to Lancaster, Pennsylvania to investigate a series of bizarre deaths—some of which are also suicides. Miranda and her team of paranormal investigators soon find themselves confronted by a vengeful spirit awakened thirty-three years after a bloody family tragedy. Miranda realizes that only she can stop the entity before it claims its final victims, but will her obsession for saving lives redeem her for the brother she failed?

“Phil Giunta’s paranormal novel, By Your Side, is a superb introduction to his work. Think ‘Ghost Hunters’ … but more realistic. The characters are thoroughly believable, the plot is expertly constructed, and the twists and turns keep you flipping pages. If you enjoy reading ghost stories, you’ll enjoy this novel. Highly recommended!” —Weldon Burge, Author of Harvester of Sorrow
“This book is so brilliantly written that it seems believable and real, and you will identify with and root for the whole team. With the way Mr. Giunta portrays his characters, you will probably be able to say that you know someone exactly like every one of them—no mean feat… Realistic dialogue is an area where many authors fall down, but not so here. It is deftly written, and the author has clearly studied the way people really speak, making it easy to read.” —Carson Buckingham, author, editor, and book reviewer at Hellnotes.com
