About the Book

A recurring dream of an old abandoned graveyard by a lake fills Jane’s nights with restless unease. On the last day of her freshman year at college, she takes a drive to her family’s former vacation spot in the Pocono Mountains with the intention of facing old demons.
Upon her arrival, she feels the comfort and belonging that was there for her as a child. But on that early spring afternoon, a sense of foreboding leads her to a clearing that is all too familiar.
And it has far more in store for her than a childhood fear…

The Cemetery by the Lake is the first in the Stories from Colony Drive series, a series of connected short stories that take place in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

The end of the book includes a sample from the beginning of the novel, Descent, the first book in Tiffany Apan’s The Birthrite Series.

About the Author
Tiffany Apan

Tiffany Apan grew up among the thick forests of the Appalachian Mountains in Northeastern Pennsylvania. It was there she began honing artistic abilities and received much of her creative inspiration. A misfit among her peers (she was the only one in her fifth grade writing class obsessed enough with Vikings and Norwegian mythology to write poems about them), Tiffany was highly active in the artistic community in Wilkes-Barre, PA, involving herself in all music, theater, visual arts, and writing. Eventually, she settled quite comfortably into a role as “that artsy kid in black” who sits in a coffee shop, drinking endless amounts of coffee and tea while writing furiously in a journal or sketchpad.

After graduating high school, she left the Northeastern PA ghosts for the Southeastern PA zombies (Pittsburgh). Upon the move, Tiffany became involved with the indie film scene, landing supporting roles in a couple films. This also gave way to the release of her music with partner in crime, Jason English. Since then, she has gone on to act in several films and theater productions with starring and supporting roles, release music to critical acclaim, and receive accolades for her writing and producing.
The Appalachian Mountains serve as a backdrop for many of her stories, including The Cemetery by the Lake and The Birthrite Series. You can check out more of her work (writing, music, film, etc) on her website, blog, Amazon, and other social media.
