Beyond the Veil

ABOUT THE STORY A spirit intrusion sets the author on a transformational journey from which there is no return. This is a true story of how Annabel Elizabeth Henley, who lived in the sixteenth century, reaches through time to relay a message of grave danger to her reincarnated lover. In so doing, Sheila is drawn into his circle of cultic mysticism. This journey leads to the realization of unbounded possibilities of the vast spiritual world and the conclusion that all of us are connected with spirit. All beings, visions and scenes borne of spirit or related to regressions are reported precisely as they occurred. Although the remainder of the characters are based in reality, names, settings, descriptive detail, and circumstances have been modified; thus, any resemblance to living persons is purely coincidental. ABOUT THE PROCESS It was with considerable reluctance that this book was written. I didn't set out to put an idea on paper. Annabel's story came easily, as though through me rather than from me, and she insisted it be told. The rest of the writing was more laborious. Without support from friends and encouragement from editors, the task may not have been completed.

"In her first book, Beyond the Veil: A Personal Story of Spiritual Connection, Sheila Carnegie has captured a series of life-changing spiritual experiences in an intriguing way. Although this is a true account, it reads like a well-written, thought-provoking novel. With twists and turns in the plot, intriguing locations, and unusual characters that capture your attention, it will keep you engaged to the very last page. Beyond the Veil made for a great Sunday afternoon read." Janice Limb Myers, Best-Selling Author ""A metaphysical message with heart and pace. A great read." D. Ann Nadeau, Best-Selling Author "Although this book is a personal story of true events in the author's life, it reads more like a novel. I couldn't put it down. Sheila Carnegie may be a first-time published author, but her use of words and sentence structure belie that." Cindy Westcott, Dallas, Texas "A Compelling Love Story Spanning Ages We learn from the past, and in this book, from past lives and spirits. Sheila Carnegie tells her personal story of a connection to Annabel, a spirit within from centuries past. This is so well written and the story woven so intriguing I found it difficult to put the book down." Mary McDonough
