A team of researchers exploring the myth of a witch find their numbers
mysteriously dwindling in this irresistible psychological thriller for
fans of Ruth Ware, Shari Lapena, and Lucy Foley.
Bestselling debut novelist Penelope Berkowitz is desperate for
inspiration for a second book. With the help of her new boyfriend, she
embarks on a research trip with a Clue-like team of professionals,
ex-lovers, and estranged family members to investigate the myth of a
witch on Stone Point, a remote coastal outcropping in the Pacific
Northwest.
For over a century, the cabin on the point stood vacant after the
violent death of the original owner and the disappearance of his
wife--until a young couple decided to turn it into an eco-lodge. Shortly
after starting renovations, however, they suddenly ceased all contact
with others and were never heard from again.
Given the area's mysterious history, Penelope is certain there's a story
to be found in the isolated region. But soon after arriving on the
point's wind-whipped shores, things begin to go awry for the team.
Storms blow in. Tempers flare. The satellite phones stop working and no
boats are due for days. Then people begin to disappear. When bodies turn
up, it's up to Penelope and the remaining members of the team to solve
the mystery of the Stone Witch before the killer is the only one left
alive.
