A novel by Elizabeth Rose
A Medieval mystery where ancient legends, dark secrets, and murder threaten to destroy a wedding before it begins.
Murder follows Lady Vivienne Harlowe wherever she goes—and not even her wedding can change that.
With the murders of her parents finally solved, Vivienne is ready to marry Sheriff Zachariah Fitch and start a new life together. When she sees the ghost of her late mother inside an ancient standing stone circle, she takes it as a sign—this is where they should exchange their vows.
But the wedding never happens. Before a single vow leaves her lips, the officiator is struck by an arrow and falls dead at her feet.
The circle is said to be a place where witches were turned to stone for practicing pagan rituals. Zachariah has never believed in legends—until now. Someone seems determined to keep him from marrying Vivienne. And his suspicions keep circling back to Morgana, Vivienne's newly discovered half-sister, who arrived with shadows trailing behind her.
