Publisher's summary
An investigative journalist uncovers the haunting secret history of her own ancestors in a bewitching novel by the bestselling author of Daughters of the Lake.
When Cassie Graves discovers her husband’s affair, it’s enough to chip away at the foundation of her life. But after researching her family’s Italian ancestry, it completely crumbles beneath her.
Her grandmother Gia’s often-told stories about the past are a lie. Her much-romanticized great-grandfather Giovanni may not even have existed. Most alarming of all, it appears her mysterious great-grandmother Violetta died by stregoneria—witchcraft. Now, piecing together the puzzle of her family tree in the small, centuries-old hill town of Santo Stefano, Cassie finds help from a welcoming group of locals: the accommodating Renzo; Dante, whose own family history connects with Cassie’s; and the ethereal Luna, an interpreter of dreams who gives Cassie a protective amulet—and the warning that she may have walked into a trap.
When Cassie comes upon an old spell book, she gets closer to unearthing long-buried family secrets, the truth about a powerful female lineage, and the haunting discovery of who she really is.

Ghosts don't exist in our world of today.

She had only recently passed away, leaving Halcyon heir to an unexpected fortune and an estate on an isolated island in the middle of the Great Lakes.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Disappointed
I love Ms. Webb’s books – maybe because this wasn’t about a haunted house I wasn’t that into it. The story was good (I guess)but she really need to have the narrator not try and do an Italian accent. She would vacillate from the accent to not having an accent. Pick one. It was very weird. I normally love this narrator But she did not do well with this book. The story was just OK. I kept waiting for something exciting to happen, but I was sadly disappointed. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you get it free or discounted.

Another wonderful story
I was trying to explain to by husband how good it was. How it reminds me of three of my favorite movies… Understand the Tuscan Sun, Chocolat, and Practical Magic.
The story has a beautiful flow to it. The performance, as always, is so well done.
I recently found out that my great grandmother’s family came from a very similar town in the same region. I didn’t know I was Italian at all. All my roots and DNA say Scottish, Welsh and Irish. This was so perfectly timed. My Italian family came over around the same time. It’s crazy how much it resonated for me. Love it.
Even if it I didn’t find all of that out about my own family, I still would have enjoyed this book very much.

Through the threads of generations come wonderful worlds…
It took me a couple of goes to get through this book. It is gripping and sad, and beautiful and extraordinary. It utterly touched me, and at times I wept.
I pre-ordered it because I love Wendy Webb’s work. I love the stories she weaves of the Great Lakes, and the mystery that surrounds them, particularly Lake Superior. So, initially I wasn’t sure if I wanted to travel to Italy. But it turns out I did. And wow! What a journey.
Utterly brilliant work. Wonderfully researched and woven with threads of life. Thanks Wendy. It was amazing to read, and I am thrilled I did. X

Loved the new twist on the supernatural with witches, especially coming out now!
Really enjoyed the new setting and how I can “see” it so clearly from her descriptions, I love the Wharton setting but thought Italy was intriguing! Perfect release time as well ;-) Keep writing Wendy. Please!

Another fantastic story by my most favorite author of all time!!! I absolutely recommend this book, and every book Wendy Webb has written. Her style of writing is superb, bouncing from past to present w/o confusing the reader/listener, each and every story is new and refreshing, and Xe Sands is the perfect narrator for bringing these awesome stories to life. I will be anxiously awaiting her next new release.
