Since she was fifteen, she's been possessed by the power of a young writer/poet Michael O'Flannery. His word spoke to her, reached her as no one ever had. Half loving the shadowy man who could create such passion, such beauty, she is embarking on writing a book at O'Flannery, about his life and his death, to find out what happened to the brilliant writer/poet Michael O'Flannery. Mystery surrounds his death. Supposedly, twenty years ago he took a gun into the forest and killed himself, leaving behind a set of near genius works that have obsessed Molly for decades. Only his body was never found. What happened to drive this genius to end his life when he was only twenty? Michael's writings touched Molly, reached her in a way men never did. So she is determined to exorcise the ghost of O'Flannery once and for all by writing this book about him, her final tribute of love. Visiting his hometown, she is determined find out why a man of such talent would destroy himself - and maybe break her obsession once and fall. There she finds hard resistance in the town folk. An empty grave with a headstone, people that lock their doors or stop talking when she entered a room, and heavy, dogged resistance from Jake Marley, a carpenter, who hints there were other deaths in the town and maybe Michael did not kill himself, but was murdered. Instead of driving Molly away, Jake fascinates her nearly as much as the enigma of Michael. His chilling warnings only makes Molly more determined to solve the riddles surrounding the writer's death. Stuart owns the talent of dark, moody alpha/gamma heroes and she is flying high with this tale. She never lets you down.
