Amanda Witham's new job at an eighteenth-century manor in
Colonial Williamsburg is a career move in the history
business, nothing personal. Then archaeologists find a
skeleton buried behind the house. That night James Grant's
ghost introduces himself to her. And a handsome and
charming ghost he is, in the tartan kilt and scarlet coat
of King George's Highland Regiment. Suddenly Amanda finds
history to be very personal indeed. She promises James
she'll reveal the truth about his death—just as soon as
she figures out what the truth is. But by the time she
arrives at James's ancestral castle in Scotland, his past
has caught up with her present, and Amanda's future is
held at sword's point. There's more than one glint of
scarlet in the shadows of the past—and in the shadows of
the heart as well.
