The Premonition at Withers Farm

A Split-Time Murder Mystery

I love me a deliciously creepy story and this one did not disappoint. Ghostly sightings. Seances. An eerie nursery rhyme. And a plot that leaves me gobsmacked as to how it was constructed so freaking awesome. All this adds up to a book that I hated to finish. Author Jaime Jo Wright is quickly becoming one of my top 3 most read authors, and that is saying a lot because I’m such a jaded reader. Give this one a whirl if you enjoy a complicated plot with a side of scary. Here’s a blurb for The Premonition at Withers Farm

In 1910 Michigan, Perliett Van Hilton is a self-proclaimed rural healer, leaving the local doctor convinced she practices quackery. It doesn't help that her mother is a spiritualist who regularly offers her services to connect the living with their dearly departed. But when Perliett is targeted by a superstitious killer, she must rely on both the local doctor and an intriguing newcomer for assistance.

In the present day, Molly Wasziak's life has not gone the way she dreamed. Facing depression after several miscarriages, Molly is adapting to her husband's purchase of a peculiar old farm. A search for a family tree pulls Molly deep into a century-old murder case and a web of deception, all made more mysterious by the disturbing shadows and sounds inside the farmhouse.

Perliett fights for her life, and Molly seeks renewed purpose for hers as she uncovers the records of the dead. Will their voices be heard, or will time forever silence their truths?
