Her mother took secrets to the grave. They didn't stay buried.
1999, Arkansas. Being the daughter of a witch and alleged murderer isn't easy. Yet Raven has carried that burden for the twelve years since her mother, Deanne, was locked away for the apparent ritualized murder of two boys. Murders she never admitted to. Now Deanne is dead, the truth buried with her. When a stranger appears at her funeral to place a feather on her casket, Raven realizes the mystery of her mother is still alive and well. But as she looks harder into Deanne's past, more lies about her own life surface. Lies that drag her to the infamous cult at the edge of town that Deanne once belonged to. As Raven connects the secrets surrounding the cult, the infamous Wind Witch murders, and her mother's death, she finds herself in incredible danger. A mesmerizing dark treat of a novel, full of twists and suspense, perfect for fans of Rebecca James and Tana French.
