Chapter One
The Other Side of Visible
Old man Oscar insists there’s a family in the realm of OtherSide that will take in homeless Shin McConnell and her only street friend Dibs Colby.
They’re convinced he’s out of his mind.
That is, until a narrow escape from the police catapults Shin headlong into invisible worlds. There she finds enemies who are out to make her life miserable, devoted Watchers who attend her twenty-four hours a day, and just as Oscar promised—a family!
But when an unexpected encounter in that realm threatens to destroy her trust, Shin is forced to choose between facing the pain of her past or rejecting her place in the only real family she’s ever known.

A Few Readers' Reviews
A Foster Mom wrote:
"I just finished The Other Side if Visible...All I can say is 'Wow!'...The personalities of Amber and Dibs were so REAL. Having experienced life with a child coming from the streets, I have a better understanding than most people. I really appreciated your character development and the hope you demonstrated.
And I am amazed at your development of the spiritual world. It's so real! I can't help but wonder if you had a heavenly experience you are recreating in your book. All I really wanted to tell you is how much I enjoyed the book, and I hope one day it's a movie. It deserves to be a movie! Thank you! I can't wait to see your next book."
A 30-something reader wrote:
"I LOVE your book! It’s gripping! I love your choice of language, even your explanation of what you mean by some of the terminology…it’s genius…to get people from the secular realm who don’t identify with Christianity to understand. It’s brilliant! My plan is to share it with everyone and linking it to your website…it is so special, you can just tell, even the amount of love you put into the book!"
A mom wrote about her family's reaction:
A friend gave us a copy of The Other Side of Visible for my daughter. My two daughters and I absolutely LOVED it! We all highly recommend that book for anyone, not just children—it’s actually a favorite in our home!
A forty-something reader wrote:
"The Other Side of Visible is a compelling story that helps activate your imagination, creating pictures and verbiage that draw you into wonder. I THOROUGHLY enjoyed the imagery Janet has created within these pages. I found myself applying the ideas that were unfolding towards my daily thoughts and attitudes. As I read I discovered the treasure of little encounters tucked away within the lines of this tale that only Jesus can breathe life on. I was MESMERIZED by the amount of LIFE I felt lifting off the pages, as it began to revive my hunger for the supernatural. A big THANK YOU to Janet Richards who has given us a gift of fictional whimsy that sweeps you into both an invitation to dream, and a portal to see into what God is up to among us on a daily basis!"
A thirteen-year-old reader asked:
"I loved the book! When is the sequel coming out?!?!?!?"
