Nestled among Central New York’s tranquil, rolling hills, Wilson Lake is the perfect setting in which to grow a family – and keep secrets.

Bishop and Nigel MacArthur, both descendants of ancient, powerful bloodlines, have each inherited unusual talents. Paired since childhood, the couple uses their gifts discreetly in order to preserve their families’ legacies and to protect themselves against power hunters. Bishop spends much of her time in solitude in her taxidermy shop, and Nigel is an unassuming third grade teacher.

But when a powerful interloper suddenly appears, claiming to be Nigel’s older brother and the first-born son of the MacArthur family, their love and loyalty are challenged as supernatural attacks and betrayal shatter their idyllic existence.

The stakes rise and the situation worsens as the secrets unravel, entangling Bishop and her family in mortal jeopardy. Bishop is forced to make a choice, the consequences of which will irrevocably alter her life and echo forward throughout the lives of all of their descendants to come.

From author of The Uneasy Series comes this moody tale of mystery, magic, and suspense, which illustrates the lengths to which love will go in order to prevail – regardless of what is right or wrong.
