Publisher's summary

Can she keep the secrets of her past to rescue a girl tormented by a ghost?

In 1920s Los Angeles, Letitia Hawking reads the veil between life and death. A scrying bowl allows her to experience the final moments of the deceased. She brings closure to grief-stricken war widows and mourning families. For Letitia, it is a penance. She knows no such peace.

For Alasdair Driscoll, it may be the only way to save his niece, Finola, from her growing night terrors. But, when Letitia sees a shadowy figure attached to the household, it rouses old fears of her unspeakable past in England.

When a man comes to her about his missing daughter, the third girl to go missing in as many months, Letitia can’t help him when she can’t see who’s taken them.

As a darkness haunts Letitia’s vision, she may not be given a choice in helping the determined Mr. Driscoll or stop herself from falling in love with him, but to do so, she risks a part of herself she had locked away, and to release it may cost Letitia her sanity and her heart.

I love the characters and the way the story unfolds! It worked really well in audio book format. I could imagine everything as it was described.

Engaging and exciting!

I'm a sucker for anything spooky, and really enjoyed this book. I love that era of the spirituality movement, and could feel the bustle of a burgeoning Los Angeles, heady and atmospheric.

This was a perfect blend of mystery, supernatural and romance. The narrator brought all the characters to life, and didn't get in the way of the story. Was a great listen!
