Helpful Score: 1
Penultimate volume of a 6 part serial book (sort of like Stephen King's "The Green Mile"). My 13 Y/O daughter devoured the entire set in 2 days this past summer, and loved it.
I have 1, 5, & 6 right now. If I can find the other 3 in my daughter's room (probable, but far from certain), I will ship them all as one book (for 1 credit). In the mean time, I am listing the three that I have separately in case someone needs to fill in a gap.

This series was ok, but I always find Saul to come up lacking when the story is over.

Ed Becker brings a fine antique dresser home from the old Asylum, a restoration project, an investment. His daughter Amy discovers an old stereoscope with a set of old pictures hidden inside one of the dresser drawers. The pictures, oddly enough, are of his own home, only with different furniture, his grandmother's house perhaps? Ed has prophetic nightmares, vivid, horrible memories brought to life. He tells his wife Bonnie about it, but she tries, unsuccessfully, to convince him otherwise.
In #5 of the Blackstone Chronicles: attorney Ed Becker spots a antique dresser in a attic and takes it home to restore. Inside the dresser Ed & his daughter, Amy find a set of old pictures and a stereoscope (an old fashioned device that allows you to see images in three dimensions). Oddly, all the photos resemble their home, but the scenes inside the stereoscope bring terrifying memories and eerie images that seem all too real....

Reread.
After the tragedy that killed Germaine Wagner and left her mother Clara incapable of speech, the town is even more convinced that there is a curse on Blackstone. Rebecca has been kidnapped by the dark figure and hidden deep inside the Asylum. No one knows what has happened to her and while half the town believes she is responsible for the what happened to the Wagners, the other half believes that something terrible has transpired.
Oliver is still having terrible headaches, which he assumes are repressed memories trying to fight their way to the surface. He's worried sick about Rebecca. Oliver knows that everything leads back to the Asylum and something that happened when he was a child, it's up to him to remember. He just doesn't know how.
Meanwhile an antique stereoscope has found it's way into the home of Ed Becker, a former criminal attorney, who gave up that lifestyle to return to Blackstone as a simple civil lawyer. After staring into the stereoscope, Ed begins having nightmares of cases past. Cases that he shouldn't have won. Cases that set the worst kinds of people free. Then his dreams begin coming true. Before long, the Beckers are another family left broken by the curse of the asylum.
