Publisher's Synopsis
Lovely Kate Borrow could hear a girl's haunting voice singing in the darkness that first eerie night she arrived in Kinning, the English village where she was to teach during World War II. Later Kate would believe she knew both the girl and the chilling secrets of this close-knit community. Perhaps her youth - or her romantic dreams about James Conrad, the brooding owner of Kinning Hall - misled her, but the strange disappearance of a student, the beautiful Celia Mond, would lead Kate to walk in a shadowy wood of dark passions and betrayals to discover who in Kinning was capable of murder.
