Jess Ward has only been back on the Isle of Wesberrey for a few weeks, but all the recent drama has made it feel a lot longer. Drama much increased by the unexpected arrival of her sister Susannah. The bishop is due in a few days to formally install her into the benefice of St. Bridget's and there is so much to prepare. Add to that a double funeral and a surprise visit from her mother and Jess has no time for family legends about the 'godmother' and the Well of the Triple Goddess. However, the disappearance of a wealthy businessman forces Jess to reexamine her personal connection to this ancient family myth - her family claim they can sense that he is dead. It's all madness, of course. But the discovery of his body at his father-in-law's funeral drags them all back into the island's darkest secrets. Her best friend has gone AWOL with the handsome undertaker and her sister is proving to be an unwanted distraction for the dishy police inspector. Things move fast on Wesberrey, and it's enough to make Jess dizzy. Or is that the result of reconnecting with her pagan past?
