The only thing is…there are new residents now, but not the kind she would have ever expected to see.
Her six-year-old daughter, Rosie, has an incredible bond with her grandfather, but no one ever dreams that the little girl will be the bait an angry ghost uses to settle a score long overdue. She is in terrible danger and the love of her grandfather will be tested to the highest extreme.

My feeling is this series should probably be read in order. Of course I started with Book 2–but actually it didn’t make too much of a difference.
Do you believe in ghosts who haunt old houses–The Ferguson House had remained empty for many many years. None of the the people from the town would go near it–they knew better. Then one day a family moved in and strange things started to happen to them.
Mira Cullen had come to visit her parents and decided to visit the new owners with her daughter. They were really nice people and Mira and the wife became friends as did their children.
Now this ghost was just as mean and miserable as he had been when he was alive—–other friendlier ghosts tried to intervene to no avail but were able to protect the children—until they weren’t.
Mira’s dying father had to step in when his grand daughter was captured—
This is a book that will make you be very aware of things that go bump in the night!!
I appreciate the fact that Cornelius’ Revenge takes place several years after Cornelius, because, while Michael (Mira and Wade’s father) was an adult in the first book, one could see in book 2 that he experienced legitimate growth after recognizing the error of his ways in book one. Michael is a real hero in Cornelius’ Revenge. Additionally, book 2 ratcheted up the scare factor. With the addition of Rosie, the reader experiences not only Mira’s fear for herself, but her fear for her daughter, which is a whole different level of terror. I look forward to reading more in the Cornelius Saga.
The sequel to the #1 best seller, Cornelius, continues to work on your emotions with the story of an innocent child, Rosie, the daughter of Mira Cullen.
The basis of Cornelius’ Revenge is between Rosie’s grandfather, Michael Cullen, and the haunting of the Ferguson House. I truly applaud the author on being able to weave current and past social issues into a paranormal reading that brings to light our brutal history that ends with healing. Characterization gives another depth, this time in Mira Cullen’s father.
Enough back story is given throughout to make this into a standalone if need be. Truly excited to have read the first and second of the three I received as part of this book tour. There are six all-told, one day I shall read the rest.
A good ghost story but read Book #1 first!
Mira and her daughter, Rosie, are in town visiting family when Mira’s mother mentions that a family has moved into Cornelius Ferguson’s house down the street in spite of rumors of hauntings in the mansion. When Mira and Rosie go to welcome the family to the neighborhood, Rosie is certain the ghosts are still there.
It was an enjoyable read but I wish it had been longer. Just when I was really getting into the story, it ended! It is not a stand-alone because of the references to events and characters in the previous book that left gaps for me in this one. I would like to read more books in the series for the back-story and to see where the characters lead.
