Having recently lost her own daughter to yellow fever, Lady Gregory takes two young women under her wing after their parents also died of the fever.
To survive in a manβs world and keep bread on the table for her and the young women, Lady Gregory turns to the worldβs oldest profession, but she isnβt exactly what she seems and has a special talent: she can conjure the spirits of the dead for grieving widowers.
But when local women in the town of Concord are suddenly attacked at night by a mysterious creature, Lady Gregory tries to stay out of the limelight until her fate is tied inexplicably to the cases. Once the local deputy gets involved and wants more than her help, Lady Gregory finds that no matter how far sheβs run from her past, there are some things she just canβt escape.
To save the lives of her makeshift family, Lady Gregory must face her dark past and go down a path that will unlock the secrets to her true power, but might also risk her very soul...

Lewis, and Philip Pullman, he has a Masterβs degree in English Literature from Villanova University where he studied the works of Alice Walker and Margaret Atwood.
