The Witching Hours
by Heather Graham
Skye McMahon sees the past—good, bad, and deadly—unspooling in vivid visions she can’t escape. That gift draws the attention of paranormal investigators Jackson and Angela Crowe, who need her help unraveling a brutal murder and chilling disappearance near Salem. Alicia Bolton’s grandfather-in-law is dead; her nanny and young son are gone; her infant daughter was found screaming in her crib. Partnered with charming psychic Zachary Erickson, Skye expects echoes of Salem’s witch trials. Instead, her visions reveal something far worse: a living crone stalking families like a fairy-tale nightmare. As more women vanish and Salem’s dark history stirs, Skye and Zachary grow closer while chasing a truth that may demand she face evil itself.
