Publisher's Synopsis
It's Halloween in the quaint, mountain town of Serena, North Carolina, and Kate Delaney is about to discover a hidden secret long tucked away in the dark corners of her century-old church that she and her husband spent several years renovating into a home before his tragic death.
The old building's previous owner used the sacred edifice to practice spiritualism, and her books and objects remain. One book in particular is the work of none other than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who traded-in his most famous detective character to prove that ghosts and fairies exist. Kate also unearths a surprising seance message: "Doyle Diary." An avid Sherlock fan, Kate decides a mysterious force has placed this investigation before her, and she compulsively dives into a case that wakes a sinister adversary with a deadly purpose.
In a setting steeped in Celtic lore and ancient beliefs, Kate and her friend Devlin McManus uncover a series of murders and a villain connected to mystical legends in which fairies and supernatural creatures abound.
Corinne F. Gerwe's mystery is a thrilling journey that pays homage to Doyle's legacy while closely examining how pivotal childhood experiences shape people's abilities to overcome fierce opposition later in life."
