Something dark and sinister is brewing in the remote Scottish village of Cairnmoor. The ruins of St. Morveth's Abbey and its eerie ossuary, filled with bones from the plague, hold secrets that are waiting to be unearthed. But when a string of bizarre deaths occur, the villagers turn to England's first female forensic pathologist, Dr. Evangeline Blackwood, for answers.
Evangeline is no stranger to the macabre, having inherited a family gift of being able to communicate with the dead. As she delves deeper into the mysteries surrounding the abbey and the ossuary, she discovers a chilling connection to her own family. Her grandmother, the last abbess, believed that a powerful Celtic death goddess, the Morrigan Dubh, was trapped within the bone chapel. And now, as the ancient seal weakens, Evangeline must find a way to stop the goddess from breaking free during the autumn equinox.
But she'll have to face the Morrigan herself, and make a terrifying choice. With the help of a skeptical local doctor and facing resistance from the superstitious villagers, Evangeline must use her skills and bravery to save the village from the wrath of the Morrigan.
For fans of gothic horror and atmospheric mysteries, 'The Ossuary's Daughter' is a must-read. If you enjoyed 'The Woman in Black' or 'Rebecca', you won't be able to put this book down. Buy now before the price changes and experience the spine-tingling terror of the Morrigan Dubh.
