From the Edgar Award-winning "queen of the American gothics": A troubled girl in a remote mountain home grapples with a terrifying secret (The New York Times).
 
New York clinical psychologist Lynn McLeod has never backed away from a child in need. But a plea for her services in Blue Ridge country tries Lynn's compassion. Ten-year-old Jilly is no random traumatized girl. She's the daughter of Lynn's unfaithful ex-husband, Stephen. Despite the turbulent emotions it stirs in her, Lynn can't say no. Perhaps this is her last chance to heal her own wounds . . .
 
From the outside, the Ashe's cliffside home is an architectural dream. Inside it's something closer to a nightmare, filled with suspicion, menace, and psychic visions. With an absentee mother off in pursuit of her career and a dispirited father, Jilly can only confide in Lynn, whom she trusts with her most shocking secrets--including those involving murder. With premonitions of another death to come, only Lynn can save Jilly--and the man she once loved--from a mystery that's about to destroy them all.
