TRANSITIONS FROM THE PAST TO THE PRESENT ... WHAT WILL THEY REVEAL?...

As ALL HALLOWS EVE approaches, I can't help but think about the spirits that still walk our earth. Sometimes present, but mostly lurking in folds between two worlds.

Through the misted veils on the New England shores, the tower of an historic landmark ignites. Please take my hand and remember to breathe ...



A brilliant flash of light transcends through time.

Another freezes a cloaked figure within a frame of salty mist as waves crash against a rocky shore. Her harrowing expression shadows the beacon to a pinprick. 

By the next blaze, she is gone. Only the lighthouse remains.

Hannah’s eyes blink in step with each heart beat. Images of her deceased parents and Martha’s Vineyard explode like firecrackers inside her mind.

She shakes her head. 

For weeks this eerie woman dressed in nineteenth century garb has been haunting my webcam, but tonight she stared into my soul. 

Why? ...

Who is she? ...

Casting aside months of research on historic lighthouses, Hannah drives to the coast and boards a ferry. 

What is the strange connection she has to this mysterious woman suspended in time?

Hannah finds out. 

But, it’s not at all what she expects ...

Hannah unravels a century old murder.

Ghosts plague our life in many ways, whether they be from our past or spirits from another world. Julie Flanders has expertly woven these two concepts into a unique and spellbinding tale.
