About the Book:

Miranda falls in love with her dream house but soon discovers it’s an affair with complications. A lot of them. Rosewood is a centuries old, tumble-down, gambrel roofed charmer located in an isolated, coastal corner of Virginia referred to as “strange”. Known for long-standing and antiquated customs, an almost indecipherable brogue and possible witchcraft connections, Miranda shrugs all locational concerns aside to pursue her new love.

When an archeological dig is undertaken at the property, a mysterious find is uncovered, a blue witch bottle. With this discovery, Miranda soon finds her life unravelling as a series of incidents commence that go beyond just “bumps in the night”. Awakened one night by the eerie glow from a ring of fire around her house, Miranda must decide. Should she leave Rosewood or stay—and potentially pay the ultimate price?
