Secrets of family between 2 different times all around the "ghost" of Misty Wayfair. It was an interesting book. ( ) The twists and turns is this book will surprise even the most skeptical and prolific readers. Superb character development and perpetual events propel you through the pages. Mysterious and macabre yet spiritually fulfilling in a unique way that doesn’t stifle. With just a touch of gruff romance to round out the loneliness felt by the main character. I was pleasantly surprised by this tale. Enjoyed this book immensely. While it is listed as a Christian fiction, there is not an over hype of preaching. I did not even realize it was listed as such. The author gives you questions at the end to think about which works out great when starting a book club. Will be picking up her other two novels!!! It carries a duel story line that follows the lives of two women born a century apart. I thought to start with that it was a ghost story but found that even though there was a ghost...and one of the women goes door to door taking photographs of the recently dead...it is more a case of reincarnation than an actual case of a haunting. Both Thea and Heidi share similar lifestyles. Other than looks they are both lonely...they both often display unorthodox behaviors...both had similar sad childhoods with mothers that shared a type of mental illness. The missteps that Thea made in the past have impacted Heidi's present and may still impact dead Thea. I found the book only somewhat creepy but high on suspense. The only problem I had with it was that the ending was very predictable if you read very many of these type of books. It was well written...engaging and well worth the 4.5 star rating.

Premis
Left at an orphanage as a child, Thea Reed vowed to find her mother someday. Now grown, her search takes her to Pleasant Valley, Wisconsin, in 1908. When clues lead her to a mental asylum, Thea uses her experience as a post-mortem photographer to gain access and assist groundskeeper Simeon Coyle in photographing the patients and uncovering the secrets within. However, she never expected her personal quest would reawaken the legend of Misty Wayfair, a murdered woman who allegedly haunts the area and whose appearance portends death. A century later, Heidi Lane receives a troubling letter from her mother--who is battling dementia--compelling her to travel to Pleasant Valley for answers to her own questions of identity. When she catches sight of a ghostly woman who haunts the asylum ruins in the woods, the long-standing story of Misty Wayfair returns--and with it, Heidi's fear for her own life. As two women across time seek answers about their identities and heritage, can they overcome the threat of the mysterious curse that has them inextricably intertwined?
