When investigative journalist Cassie Graves discovers her husband’s affair, her world cracks. But it shatters completely when she uncovers dark secrets about her Italian ancestry. Her grandmother’s cherished stories were lies, her great-grandfather Giovanni may be a fabrication, and her great-grandmother Violetta’s death is steeped in accusations of stregoneria—witchcraft.
Traveling to the ancient hill town of Santo Stefano, Cassie pieces together the mystery with the help of enigmatic locals: Renzo, a helpful guide; Dante, whose family history intertwines with hers; and Luna, a dream interpreter who gifts Cassie a protective amulet—and a dire warning.
When an old spell book surfaces, Cassie unravels her powerful lineage and the truth about who she really is. But some secrets were buried for a reason, and uncovering them could be her undoing.
