Elizabeth Goodweather knows what it’s like to be an
outsider, to keep secrets and nurse wounds. But Elizabeth
raised a family in these mist-shrouded North Carolina
hills and is deeply settled on her small farm—even finding
the space to let a new man into her life. Everything
changes when her daughter Rosemary returns home,
determined to solve a nineteen-year-old riddle: the
mysterious disappearance of her best friend, Maythorn
Mullins, when the girls were just ten.
Soon
Elizabeth and her daughter are prying into the strange
history of the Mullins family, confronting a complex
thicket of relationships and exploring a realm of magic
and Cherokee legend that Maythorn shared secretly with
Rosemary.
But most of all, they will discover that
behind a child’s disappearance was something more evil and
far closer than they ever imagined....
