#1 International Audible & Kindle Bestseller
"A deliciously supernatural mystery and love story best paired with a glass of a sherry, a crackling fire, and a keen eye for secret messages hidden throughout." -BestThrillers.com

I wanted to follow up Hattie Vavaseur, but I didn't necessarily want to write a series. Instead, I chose to use a crossover character, Vamelda Anstruthers, the medium who helps Hattie along her journey. As far as Verity Easton goes, I was kind of feeling powerless in my life and noticed that other women I knew were feeling the same, due to societal pressures and people-pleasing habits. I felt like they needed a voice that didn't necessarily end with her becoming a badass, but rather, by making the ultimate sacrifice.
