Publisher's summary

The ghosts of the past come calling in a spellbinding heart stopper from the "Queen of the Northern Gothic".

After the end of her marriage, Kate Granger has retreated to her parents' home on Lake Superior to pull herself together - only to discover the body of a murdered woman washed into the shallows. Tucked in the folds of the woman's curiously vintage gown is an infant, as cold and at peace as its mother. No one can identify the woman. Except for Kate. She's seen her before. In her dreams...

One hundred years ago, a love story ended in tragedy, its mysteries left unsolved. It's time for the lake to give up its secrets. As each mystery unravels, it pulls Kate deeper into the eddy of a haunting folktale that has been handed down in whispers over generations. Now, it's Kate's turn to listen.

As the drowned woman reaches out from the grave, Kate reaches back. They must come together, if only in dreams, to right the sinister wrongs of the past.

Great story

This story had me hooked. The performance at times sounded a little bit whiney, but I was into the story enough that I was able to get past it. Really enjoyed the different backstories and characters and how they all weaved together.

Really good all the way to the end!

I really enjoyed this tale! Sweet and sad; my emotions ran the gamut. Really liked the folk lore/supernatural aspects that were well woven into every day reality, making the whole story plausible. I’ll be looking for more by this author. Thanks for a nice escape.

If you like gothic love stories

I have read Webb’s other books and I am delighted by how quickly they draw you into the story. How she doesn’t let anything slip. The setting, the plot, and the characters are all well-balanced. She is a fun author and I enjoy her books a lot.

Loved the Book

The story was wonderful. I was transported each night (when I do my reading) to the land beside the waters. It left me wanting for more and dismayed that the story was ending. That being said....the narration was, IMHO, superb. One of the best narrators that I have heard thus far. I will probably listen to this one again in a couple of years and will look for more books by this author.

AMAZING STORY!!

This story was full of twists and turns and left you needing to know and understand what Was happening and why. The address played so many roles and you would forget that it was just her voice she did an amazing job. You begin to connect with the characters and paint an image in your mind of the entire story happening. Very well written.
