      The Graveyard Plot - Jason Strange

      Chapter 1

      Grandpa’s Attic

      Damon Germain stood on the front lawn of his grandfather’s very old house. It was a huge building right on the edge of Ravens Pass. He’d been there many times before, but today was different. Today Grandpa wouldn’t be there.

      Standing next to Damon on the lawn were his mother; her friend, Martha Kane; and Martha’s son, Jaden. The four of them lived in Lakeville, but they were all in Ravens Pass for the weekend just to pack up the house and prepare it to be put on the market.

      I know, Damon’s mother said. But my dad just can’t afford to keep the place anymore.

      The four of them walked to the front porch. As they stepped inside the house, they saw that the place was a complete mess.

      Stinks, Damon’s mother said. I know. She sighed sadly. Then she nodded. This is probably for the best. Dad will be happier and healthier at the home.

      Martha put her hands on her hips and smiled. We should break into teams, she said. The moms will start in the basement.
