When Jessica moves to Starch, it's an opportunity to take a leading role in a homicide case — and to abandon her troubled past and "gift" for good. But when she enters the Abbey Ruins to investigate the crime scene, she soon learns the woodland is home to more mysteries than she imagined.
Voices lurk among the trees; pleas from young, unsettled spirits. Jessica tries to ignore them, but her ability simply won't allow it. The problem is, her gift also acts as a gateway for someone she has spent her life escaping. And with each passing day, this entity grows stronger and more vicious.
Ignoring the spirits' pleas could destroy her morally — but saving them may come at an even greater cost.
