Description
As ethereal mists swirl around her, Lucy Finnley steps out of the City and into a realm where the past and present collide. Her new refuge, the Jack Rabbit Inn on the high moor, is steeped in history and haunted by legends. The ancient walls whisper of malevolent spirits, but Lucy sees the inn as her sanctuary from the brewing chaos beyond its stone threshold.
In the shadow of the moor, the village of Hawks Rise lies shrouded in secrecy. Beneath its veneer of respectability, dark truths fester. Every Sunday, the villagers gather to hear the vicar's fire-and-brimstone sermons, condemning the ancient tribe whose legacy still stirs fear and fascination.
Simultaneously, the narrative slips back in time to reveal Henry Mulberry, the troubled heir to Mulberry Hall. From his vantage point, the moor is both a kingdom and a burden. Responsible for vast lands, quarries, and the livelihoods of his tenants, Henry's true trials are far more personal. With his younger brother Oscar's reckless ways, his father George's irascible decline, and the enigmatic Abbott Mathew's influence, Henry finds little solace or time for his own desires.
In this fractured world, the relentless hunt for witches rages on. The ancient tribe's mystic heritage is pitted against the witchfinders' fervent crusade. As the forces of the old clash with the dogmas of the new, the question remains: who will prevail?
Crossroad Burials weaves together a tapestry of mystery, history, and supernatural intrigue. Dive into a story where the boundaries between good and evil blur, and every step taken at the crossroads may seal one's fate.
This book may be read as a stand-alone.
