About the book:
Edward
Scot and Victor Blackwood have despised one another for nearly a quarter of a
century, but now their simmering hatred is about to erupt.
When
Cassie Scot returns home from her sojourn in Pennsylvania, she finds that her
family has taken a hostage. Desperate to end the fighting before someone dies,
Cassie seeks help from local seer Abigail Hastings, Evan Blackwood’s
grandmother. But Abigail has seen her own death, and when it comes at the hand
of Cassie’s father, Victor Blackwood kills Edward Scot.
But
things may not be precisely as they appear.
Evan
persuades Cassie to help him learn the truth, teaming them up once again in
their darkest hour. New revelations about Evan and his family make it difficult
for Cassie to cling to a shield of anger, but can Evan and Cassie stop a feud
that has taken on a life of its own? Conclusion to the Cassie Scot series.
Excerpt“I–” My cell phone rang, saving me the challenge of coming up with a plausible lie. I answered without checking the caller ID. “Hello?”“Cassie, dear, how are you and my grandson getting along?” It was Abigail. I had the volume turned up loud enough that Evan could hear. His eyes widened, and he stepped closer. Too close, but I pretended the proximity didn’t affect me in the slightest.“Abigail, where are you? What are you doing?”“You know the answer to that question, Cassie. And as much as I’d love to give you and Evan a chance to work through more of your issues, I find I have a selfish last request.”My heart squeezed. “What?”“I don’t want to die alone.” The words were a bare whisper, but both Evan and I heard.“Where are you?”“At the overlook around back. Hurry.” The call ended.“What did she mean?” Evan asked. “What do you know?”I was already on my way out the front door, Evan right on my heals. To simplify matters, and to get to her as soon as possible, I decided to give him as much of the truth as I could. “She says someone has to die, and if it’s not her, then it’s going to be your parents.”
