Cindy Henderson never believed in ghosts.
She never believed in herself, either.
But when a routine paranormal investigation takes the BTG team into the swampy coastal lowlands of North Carolina, Cindy becomes the unwilling host for the ghost of Mary Rookes - a colonial-era woman accused of witchcraft and hung from the very tree beneath which her restless spirit still lingers. What begins as a simple case quickly unravels into something far stranger: the encounter awakens parts of Cindy she never knew existed.
Now Cindy can see what others can't.
Feel what others fear.
And sense the veil between the living and the dead pulling tighter each day.
As the team searches for the truth behind Mary's death and the curse she left behind, Cindy must face storms both supernatural and deeply personal. A new relationship forces her to confront old wounds, while a shocking betrayal threatens to undo the fragile confidence she has only just begun to build. With support from Isabella, Winona, Katie, and the women who refuse to let her fall, Cindy must decide who she truly is when the darkness calls her name.
Part ghost story, part emotional awakening, and part spiritual initiation, The Strange Case of Mary Rookes marks Cindy Henderson's transformation from frightened skeptic to one of the VeilWalkers' most powerful and compassionate voices.
The veil has chosen her.
Now she must choose herself.
