Publisher's Synopsis
As legend has it, if you carve your deepest desire into the bark of a Witch Tree, then over time as the tree grows, it will swallow the carvings until only a witch can read them. The history of Burning Lake is carved in the trees, and only the witches could understand it. Until now. Detective Natalie Lockhart gained unwanted notoriety when she and her family became front and centre of not one, but two sensational murder cases. Now she's lost her will, and her way. Burned out and always looking over your shoulder is no way to be a cop, and Natalie desperately thinks that maybe quitting is her only option left. All that changes when a beloved resident - a practicing Wiccan and founder of the town's oldest coven - is killed in a fashion more twisted and shocking than Natalie has ever seen, leaving the town reeling. Natalie has no choice but to help solve the case along with Luke, the detective.
