The sequel to Shadows of the Afterlife. It's been a few months since Lyla's life was turned upside-down. Her father was offered the job as mayor, and the family has moved back into John Hampton's mansion. The girl hasn't heard a word from the Moon Cult, nor has she seen a ghost since. It's only when she discovers a journal, dating back to the time John and Nathan Hampton were alive, that her world is disrupted. The author, Charlotte Griffin, was a seventeen-year-old girl who had fled from her spiteful aunt. Against the trials of the 19th century and Whistmere's eerie occurrences, she must fight to follow her heart. Through the diary, Lyla begins to understand there's a different side to the town's legend, including the Moon Cult's tragic origin. Full of mysteries, ghosts and romance.
