When Guthrie Hewitt calls on restaurateur and private
investigator Jane Lawless, he doesn't know where else he
can turn. Guthrie has fallen for a girl-Kira Adler. In
fact, he was planning to propose to her on Christmas Eve.
But his trip home with Kira over Thanksgiving made him
uneasy. All her life, Kira has been haunted by a dream-a
nightmare, really. In the dream, she witnesses her mother
being murdered. She knows it can't be true because the
dream doesn't line up with the facts of her mother's death.
But after visiting Kira's home for the first time, and
receiving a disturbing anonymous package in the mail,
Guthrie starts to wonder if Kira's dream might hold more
truth than she knows.
When Kira's called home again
for a family meeting, Guthrie knows he needs Jane's help to
figure out the truth, before the web of secrets Kira's
family has been spinning all these years ensnares Kira too.
And Jane's investigation will carry her deep into the
center of a close-knit family that is not only fraying at
the edges, but about to burst apart.
In The Grave
Soul, Ellen Hart once again brings her intimate voice to
the story of a family and the secrets that can build and
destroy lives.
