Fleeing an abusive marriage and tormented by her past, Alexandra Turner finds solace in a small coastal town on Puget Sound and a job with a local marine biologist studying orcas. After befriending a group of locals, Alex learns that she has moved to a place that has a reputation of being the most haunted town in Washington. Such superstitions would be easy to dismiss...if Alex wasn't already on edge. Haunted by shreds of memories of her days with her husband, Alex can't keep from looking over her shoulder. As unexplained sounds and scents accumulate and unnerving forces seem to take hold, Alex is beginning to believe that she's not escaping her ghosts, after all. In fact, she might finally be inviting them in.
