Dream a Little Dream (The Silver Trilogy) (F) (34 page)

Brief guest appearances by various teachers (who wants to know their names?);

Lancelot,
Anabel’s dead West Highland terrier; poor
Hazel Pritchard,
who appears only in the blog;
Mr. Wu
, Liv’s former kung fu teacher; the four malicious girls from junior high in Berkeley, California … and any number of anonymous shadows.

Hello, all you dreamers out there—if you’ve enjoyed the story of Liv Silver, you can look forward to another one, because, as Anabel rightly remarked, the story has only just begun. (Is that scary, or is it scary?)

In the next book there is another mystery for Liv to solve. Someone is living under a curse—good thing Liv doesn’t believe in all that supernatural nonsense. Well, except for the dreams, but they are useful as well. It’s amazing what you can find out at night.…

And maybe you would like to know whether Lottie and Charles will become a couple, or whether Mia will manage to marry Lottie off to the good-looking veterinarian in Pilgrim’s Lane? And what Grayson and Florence’s grandmother will say about the changes in the family when she gets back from her cruise around the world? And whether Liv and Henry will still be in love, or whether maybe Henry is keeping one secret too many in this second book…?

Speaking of secrets, has anyone yet guessed the identity of Secrecy?

See you soon!

Sincerely,

Kerstin Gier

PS—What does your dream door look like? At the moment, mine is black and silver, with red owls and a really dangerous vampire lizard for a doorknob. ☺
