Catherine's past warmed her with contented pride. Disguised as her alter-ego, Shadow, she had protected the villagers of her land, holding off wolves' heads and bringing justice to the weak. Her life provided everything she could have dreamed of.  Her future, in comparison, was bleak and desolate. Her council ordered her to submit to the courtships of Lord Epworth, a coward whose chosen path was to flee the chaos of the land and retreat to Ireland. The lecher seemed fully intent on keeping his stable of mistresses at his side as well.  In the depths of her despair, Lord Epworth's foster son, Jack, shone out as a beacon of honor and courage. But with so much at stake, could she go against the loyalties due her family and follow instead the passionate urgings of her heart?

Their evenings of kayaking on Manchaug Pond were the perfect counterpoint to her days writing and maintaining an online presence. The world was in balance.  And then, in the shadowy depths behind Sutton's long-abandoned drive-in, Morgan stumbles across a shallow grave holding the skeletal body of a young woman. How long had the girl lain there? Why had nobody reported her missing?  The only clue to the girl's identity is a beeswax Santa figurine, one of the first prototypes created by the artisans at Vaillancourt Folk Art.  The trail delves into a world of prejudice and jealousy, of shattered dreams and lost hopes.
