Cover Copy

Front Cover Copy For Marian and Julian Dunne, their home at England's Dartmoor, Four Shields, has always been a haven of peace and tranquility. But unexpectedly their calm, ordered existence comes under threat. One sunny day, inside the house, Marian is overcome by dense, choking smoke. When she recovers consciousness, the smoke has disappeared and there is no trace of a fire that could have caused it. A few days later, on the high ground behind the house, Julian awakens from sleep to find his hand badly burned, yet there is no sign of fire on the ground beside him. Near Four Shields, on bleak Dartmoor itself, are the remains of a primitive settlement where centuries before ancient druids offered blood sacrifices to their gods. Marian carries the bloodlines of those druids, and as the fire and smoke return, she begins to sense another woman-a woman from those ancient times. In this powerful debut novel, Deborah Grabien has written a gripping tale of mystery, suspense, and ancient evil. Fantastic as the story may be, the author evokes a reality that increasingly involves the reader right up to the book's terrifying final scene. Rear Cover Copy It hit her with the force of a blow. Out of the dark, an arrow of knowledge, came the realization that she was being watched. There was something here with her, something that watched her, avid, greedy, wanting her....She was not alone.
