In Elizabeth's gentle world, desire is an unspoken word. She's lived an overprotected life with Grandfather, but overnight everything changes when he passes ... where once there was light, now there are mysterious, disturbing, shadows. Her life becomes complicated in the mundane aspects of day to day living, but even more impenetrable are the mysteries of the shifting shadows that lurk in the corners of rooms, pass in the mirrors, and haunt her half-awake dreams. She will no longer find comfort and peace in the rambling, old, Victorian house. Screwing up bravery she didn't know she had, Elizabeth moves into a charming, light-filled, lakeside home, resolved to leave the paranormal, unnerving events behind. And yet more importantly, to love, to be loved, and to fulfill the dreams of her deepest heart's desire. But ... the hauntings follow her, and the paranormal events multiply. She must call upon internal resources of courage, fearlessness, and daring she didn't know she had, to defend herself and all she has come to love. When she finds herself face-to-face with villainous depravity, her fortitude is put to its greatest test - will Elizabeth prevail?
