Sara Wade has a gift . . . or an affliction, depending
on your point of view. She talks with the dead. An an
embarrassment and an anomaly to her mother, this
twenty-seven-year-old mistress of Harrogate Plantation
discovers the dark secrets that lurk within this
historic mansion.
From the murky depths of
St. Claire’s Bayou and St. Lucius Parrish in 1855
Louisiana, Sara travels back to 1805 via the diary
entries of Maddy Grayson, a beautiful, intelligent woman
who lived sequestered behind its smothering walls along
with her vindictive, illegitimate sibling, Katherine, a
bitter child raised as her fraternal twin. Within the
confinement and madness of nineteenth-century arranged
marriage, a tragedy unfolds. Katherine is betrothed to
Jonathan Bradford, the love of her sister’s life—Maddy’s
only reason for existing. Before Jonathan disengages
himself from the clutches of social obligation, he pays
the ultimate price, heartbroken and bereft.
As Sara falls in love with
Jonathan, his ghost emerges in soul-moving clarity, much
more than an ephemeral presence. Startling and real, her
diversions fifty years into the past take on a
frightening intensity. Caught up in the catastrophic
misfortune of deceased Harrogate residents, Sara
realizes that her involvement with Jonathan is not mere
coincidence.
The shocking answer lies
in the dusty pages of time. |
