Summary

Accepting a dream job at the Harlowe House estate museum in New England, Augusta Podos discovers a Harlowe daughter who was almost completely removed from the family historical record and digs deeper, awakening a sinister power.

Margaret Harlowe never quite fit in with her kin, but in the tangled woods surrounding her family's estate she cultivated her uncanny power. Whispers of "witch" dogged her footsteps, and Margaret's power began to wind itself with the tendrils of something darker. One hundred and fifty years later, Augusta Podos takes a dream job at Harlowe House, the historic home of a wealthy New England family that has been turned into a small museum in Tynemouth, Massachusetts. Stumbling across a reference to a daughter who has nearly been expunged from the historical record she investigates- and wakens something sinister, a dark power that binds one woman to the other across lines of blood and time. If Augusta can't resist its allure, everything she knows and loves-- including her very life-- could be lost forever. -- adapted from back cover
