Evelyn Gill Hilton was born and raised in Baytown, Texas. She attended Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas, and received a B.A. Degree in Art and Education. She later received a Masters of Education Degree from Sul Ross State University in Alpine, Texas. She married Bob Hilton and together, worked in the Texas public school system for the entirety of their careers. They have three children, Steven, Suzanne and David, all of whom are now grown, and six wonderful grandchildren. Now retired, Evelyn and Bob live between Brownwood and Bangs in the beautiful northern hill country of Texas. Evelyn is an avid artist, as well as a writer. She has always loved to travel, and, aside from frequenting Mexico, has visited Canada and even Japan. When she is not writing, drawing illustrations for her books, or painting pictures for friends, Evelyn is traveling with her husband and enjoying their grandchildren. Annabelle and the Great Galveston Hurricane of 1900, Evelyn Hilton's second book and the sequel to her first book, Kidnapped by Pirates, is told from the perspective of a porcelain doll, Annabelle, who has been bought for Laura by her brother, Ben. During the first week of September, 1900, a massive, unexpected hurricane prowls into the Gulf of Mexico and heads straight for Galveston Island. Laura's family must find a way to survive this deadliest storm ever to hit America. In a most unconventional escape devised by Ben, the family survives, to rebuild their lives. This account is based on the true story of the monster hurricane, which killed over seven thousand people and virtually wiped Galveston off the map. More importantly, this tale provides the reader with insight into the brave, frontier men, women and children, who settled the Texas coastland and, despite extreme hardships, paved the way for future generations.

On a breezy summer day, Gretchen and her family head to the ocean. Gretchen wants to swim with her older brothers and sister, but everyone ignores her. When the wind steals her new sun hat, she catches it by its ribbon and is lifted into the sky, far, far above the beach, where a friendly seagull is happy to play.

"Joyce Carol Oates has written what may be the world’s finest postmodern Gothic novel: E.L. Doctorow’s Ragtime set in Dracula’s castle. It’s dense, challenging, problematic, horrifying, funny, prolix and full of crazy people. You should read it.” —Stephen King, New York Times Book Review Princeton, New Jersey at the turn of the 20th century: a tranquil place to raise a family, a genteel town for genteel souls. But something dark and dangerous lurks at the edges of the town, corrupting and infecting its residents. Vampires and ghosts haunt the dreams of the innocent. A powerful curse besets the elite families of Princeton—their daughters begin disappearing. A young bride on the verge of the altar is seduced and abducted by a dangerously compelling man—a shape-shifting, vaguely European prince who might just be the devil, and who spreads his curse upon a richly deserving community of white Anglo-Saxon privilege. And in the Pine Barrens that border the town, a lush and terrifying underworld opens up. When the bride’s brother sets out against all odds to find her, his path will cross those of Princeton’s most formidable people, from Grover Cleveland, fresh out of his second term in the White House and retired to town for a quieter life, to soon-to-be commander in chief Woodrow Wilson, president of the University, and a complex individual obsessed to the point of madness with his need to retain power; from the young Socialist idealist Upton Sinclair, to his charismatic comrade Jack London, and the most famous writer of the era, Samuel Clemens/ Mark Twain—all plagued by “accursed” visions. Narrated with Oates's unmistakable psychological insight, The Accursed combines beautifully transporting historical detail with chilling supernatural elements to stunning effect.
