When Boston psychic Dr. Frances Gourmelon (Ghosts on the Red Line) arrives at the Center, she discovers that things there are very odd, and getting odder.Charles Philip Tucker, former con man and the Center's founder, claims that he's in touch with Ignatius Jones through the portrait. He says that he's channeling Ignatius Jones when he punishes a visitor to the Center for blasphemy and selects an eighteen-year-old girl to bear his children on Ignatius Jones' behalf.Frances decides to get involved.Portrait of Ignatius Jones is a mind-bending story of con artists, psychics, and the paranormal in peaceable Vermont.
