Blurb:
Haunted by a dark mystery
in her family’s past...
When Tori Downing takes possession of the abandoned Hamilton
estate on the longest peninsula on Lake Jefferson, Arkansas, she avoids
revealing her connection to the ill-fated Hamilton family. Is the glowing image
that shimmers in the second floor window of Victoria House the ghost of
Victoria Hamilton? Can Tori handle moving into a house with paranormal
activity...again?
Tormented by a scandal
she thought she’d left behind...
Until she leaves her career at the Arkansas State Crime Lab
behind, she never even considers moving to Lake Jefferson, but the fallout from
scandal gives Tori a very good reason to escape to Hill County and refurbish
and restore the old family mansion. She settles into her new life...until the
old accusations from her past start resurfacing.
Attracted to a man
haunted by secrets of his own...
Drawn together to solve the murder of Jared Crenshaw, Tori and
Lt. Grayson of the Hill County Sheriff’s Department dive into a tangled web of
jealousy, deceit, and revenge as they attempt to solve both crimes, Jared’s
death and the mysterious death years ago of Victoria Hamilton. Grayson’s past
keeps interfering with his present, causing turmoil in both his professional
life and his personal life. Can their love survive revealing the truth—from
both the past and present—surrounding the tragedies at Victoria House?

Snippet #5
The door was already open a crack. He peeked inside,
straining to detect any movement. He attempted to draw in a deep breath, but
only ragged hacking and coughing followed the effort. He slapped his hand over
his mouth, fearful of premature discovery. Steadying his nerves, he pulled the
black bandana over the lower half of his face. Did his eyes sparkle with malice
over the edge of the cloth? He hoped so. Oh God, he hoped so.
He slipped along the dirt floor of the tunnel one slow step
at a time. If he met one of Hamilton’s men down the long corridor, his life
would end. No questions asked. No one would ever find his body. Hamilton would
make sure of it, but he wouldn’t handle the task himself. He had men to do his
dirty work for him, never allowing his hands to be soiled with the details of
his enemy’s demise. Many men had disappeared, presumably murdered on Hamilton’s
orders. The residents of Hill County whispered rumors of revenge and death
behind their hands, but no one dared speak of his criminal activities aloud.
