Mercedes Annalee Ellison plans to escape the legacy of her family. Rumors are that their unusual experiences fueled the imaginations of horror writers in England in the 1800s. Whether those rumors are true, it is a well-documented fact that every generation in the Ellison family encounters things that defy a satisfying explanation.
Mercedes chooses what she sees as a boring career as an independent architectural historian on her home turf in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. She expects to spend most of her days researching archives of old documents and filling out mind-numbing paperwork to send through miles of red tape. She dates a young man with what she thinks is a dull future as an attorney. There should be no room in her life for the strange sands that slip relentlessly through the hourglass of time in her family.
But the stunning discovery of a journal and a deed in a hidden panel of an old cedar chest forces Mercedes to face an archenemy with a vendetta against the Ellisons from over a hundred and twenty years earlier. And her job plunges her into tales of passion, cold case crimes, unsolved mysteries, and a hunt for long-lost treasure.
The vendetta has come full circle. As a born-again Christian, Mercedes knows in her head that she lives in a spiritual realm. Now, she must decide in her heart whether she will accept her destiny as both a believer and an Ellison when forced to confront the supernatural in a deadly showdown.
