A deck of tarot cards and an old curse.
Moon Gilespie has never been sure of herself. It's just the way she's always been. She's even chosen a career as a ghostwriter that has allowed her to hide in the shadows, content to not draw too much attention to herself. She was happy to live her life quietly and simply.
But then her Aunt Julia bought a deck of tarot cards that have a very long and grim history. One that sometimes ends in death or misery for those that possess them. And yet, someone else wants them and is willing to kill in order to get their hands on them. But who would want a cursed deck of tarot cards enough to commit murder? Moon has to find out, and meanwhile uncover the story of the deck itself.
With her loss still fresh, Moon finds herself in search of the killer with the help of a new friend, Alex Rhodes, a private investigator that works nearby. She finds she needs to get back the deck of tarot cards before they fall into someone else's hands, because it's a matter of life and death. Moon just doesn't know whose.
