Woo Woo: A Cape Charles Novel

by Joe Coccaro
Woo Woo: A Cape Charles Novel

Carter Rossi moves to Cape Charles, Virginia, for the same reasons as many of the town’s residents—to find solitude and reboot his life. Carter quickly discovers an eclectic mix of new arrivals and historic families. Despite political and cultural differences, the groups coexist in harmony. Carter meets the mysterious and beautiful Rose Portman, a parapsychologist who is attempting to find out why Cape Charles is a hotbed for paranormal activity. Could it be the asteroid strike? She is on a quest to discover whether one of the town’s resident apparitions is her long-lost great aunt, who died mysteriously around 1920. Rose and Carter’s journey is sometimes hilarious, sensual, and spiritually insightful, bending the edges of imagination and reality.

  • "Woo-Woo gives me just what I want: a little haunting in my travels. It's a true you-think-you're-there experience. As a writer, I'm jealous. As a reader, I'm delighted."


    New York Times Bestselling Author Diane Carey, Star Trek Series

  • "Joe Coccaro employs the same quality prose as Richard Russo in telling the story of Carter Rossi's adventures. This is a really great story, and more than that it is a world you are reluctant to leave when you turn the last page."


    Amazon Bestselling Author William Hazelgrove, Author of The Pitcher

  • "Woo-Woo is a comedy of manners, a la Oscar Wilde, where the damaged main character tries to fit into a strange new world with an arcane and wacky social structure."


    Bestselling Author Joe Jackson, the Mina Hohenberg Darden Endowed Chair of Creative Writing at Old Dominion University
