CANADA’S FOREMOST OFF-BEAT AUTHOR FRANK TALABER LAUNCHES SPINE-TINGLING PARANORMAL CRIME SERIES: THE AINSWORTH CHRONICLES
CHILLIWACK, BC — Prepare to be captivated by the supernatural as acclaimed Canadian author Frank Talaber introduces readers to The Ainsworth Chronicles, a thrilling new book series blending crime, mystery, and the paranormal—set against the haunting beauty of Victoria, British Columbia.
Book One: The Joining
In the series debut, readers meet Detective Carol Ainsworth on her first undercover assignment at the luxurious—and notoriously haunted—Fairmont Empress Hotel. What begins as a straightforward wedding surveillance involving two feuding Mafia families quickly spirals into a vortex of spirits, secret pasts, a sexy FBI agent, a seductive mobster, and curses dating back centuries. Add a mysterious psychic, disappearing boys, and ghost-infested sewers, and Carol’s assignment turns into a battle between reality and the paranormal.
And yes, the hotel’s high tea is to die for—literally.
Book Two: The Mystery of Ms. Teak
Psychic Agnes Van Lunt returns—bending time to save a child’s life, unleashing chaos with consequences. Carol now juggles angry Russian mobsters, confused ghosts, an eerie child channeling their psychic friend, and unsettling changes in her young nephew Nathan. With Ms. Teak mysteriously absent (or possibly not?), timelines, truths, and trust twist together in a thrilling sequel that blurs the lines between past and present.
Book Three: Into The Dark Side
Carol Ainsworth dives deeper into darkness as she tracks a cunning serial killer disguising murders as drug overdoses. Alongside her shaman ally Charlie Stillwaters, who faces off once more with the enigmatic Raven, the team must confront a disturbed vigilante targeting drug dealers. This dark and gritty psychological thriller explores the depths of human despair—and the supernatural forces watching from the shadows.

Quick Synopsis Of The Joining
Police detective Carol Ainsworth goes undercover as the manager of the very grand old lady, the five-star Fairmont Empress Hotel, in Victoria British Columbia. One of the most haunted cities in North America, with more ghosts than tourists. Ready to deal with the two Italian families flying in for a wedding to unite them, but are actually setting up a west coast drug operation. Only she did not bargain for the ghosts, five in the Empress alone, the hot FBI agent and the hotter mafioso gentleman nor the ancient curses that come along with them too. Add to that the very wonderful and eccentric, mysterious, mind-reading psychic lady, Agnes, that checks in, claiming you've invited her as the young boys begin disappearing, including her only nephew. Soon Mafia members are found hanging in their rooms while in the sewers weird things are happening to the unfortunate junkies trapped alongside spirits dwelling amidst them while looking for their next fix as a new life form is being born.
Carol found her first undercover assignment way more challenging than she could have imagined. The one saving grace was the great Empress’ High Tea that Agnes introduced her to and the fabulous scones that are to die for. Literally. Let’s hope Carol makes it to lunchtime.

And my best reviews.

You bastard!! I purchased Raven’s Lament from you. I don’t like your genre or your style of writing. All this woo woo stuff and moving underground through the root systems, it’s not for me, I thought. Until I read the first chapter and couldn’t put it down. I had to keep reading to find out how you would bring the story together. Then I bought another four books! You bastard! I met you at another event last week and bought another four books. Now, I can’t wait for your next books to come out. You have hooked me! The other night I spent three hours reading one of your books and thought, man I gotta get up for work in the bloody morning. Did I mention you’re a bastard?!
