Suspense Gothic | Horror
A town gripped by fear. A woman accused of witchcraft.
Who can save Pale Harbor from itself? Maine, 1846. Gabriel Stone is desperate to escape the
ghosts that haunt him in Massachusetts after his wife’s
death, so he moves to Maine, taking a position as a
minister in the remote village of Pale Harbor. But not all is as it seems in the sleepy town. Strange,
unsettling things have been happening, and the
townspeople claim that only one person can be
responsible: Sophronia Carver, a reclusive widow who
lives with a spinster maid in the eerie Castle Carver.
Sophronia must be a witch, and she almost certainly
killed her husband. As the incidents escalate, one thing becomes clear: they
are the work of a twisted person inspired by the wildly
popular stories of Mr. Edgar Allan Poe. And Gabriel must
find answers, or Pale Harbor will suffer a fate worthy of
Poe’s darkest tales. Hester Fox comes to writing from a background in the
museum field as a collections maintenance technician.
This job has taken her from historic houses to fine art
museums, where she has the privilege of cleaning and
caring for collections that range from paintings by old
masters to ancient artifacts to early-American furniture.
She is a keen painter and has a master’s degree in
historical archaeology, as well as a background in
medieval studies and art history. Hester lives outside
Boston with her husband
