Description
The story returns to the idyllic but deceptively deadly English village of Castle Knoll. In the present day, Annie Adams is finally settling into the Gravesdown estate when she crosses paths with Peony Lane, the very fortune teller who famously predicted her Great Aunt Frances’s murder decades ago. Peony tries to deliver a new, cryptic warning to Annie, but before Annie can process it, Peony is found dead in the locked Gravesdown estate with a ruby-hilted dagger in her back. To clear her name and understand the warning, Annie must dive back into her aunt’s legendary files. The narrative shifts back to 1967, following a young Frances Adams as she investigates a suspicious car crash that decimated the wealthy Gravesdown family. As both women peel back layers of village history, they discover that the “blackness” in Castle Knoll’s heart runs even deeper than they imagined.
