Absolute silence fell over us in the grim second before we plowed into the pole. I grabbed the steering wheel and threw my leg over to jam on the brake pedal. “Stop!” I yelled, but she was frozen with fright. A distant telephone pole grew bigger as her foot stuck to the accelerator.Ī frightening swell of adrenaline flooded my veins, sending my heart into a frenzy. I mean, I see something, but it’s not the road. Her slender fingers searched for me as if I were a ghost she could only hear. “If you’re tired, I can drive.” Who needed a license when I’d already mastered a moped along with the Green Briar golf carts?
Instead, she blinked over and over, and rubbed her eyes with one hand. I glanced at Aunt J, who was no longer bopping her head to the bad music. I pressed a hand over my chest, feeling the thumping slow. Another bright flash of white-hot lightning forked across the purplish-black sky. I stared at the clouds, ready to calculate how much time we had before the rain hit. A tempest churned over the Chesapeake Bay and was rolling toward town.
Lightning flashed, followed by a rumble of thunder, jolting me alert. Engaged in a deadly game without knowing who her true rival is, Hannah isn’t certain she will survive, and if she loses she may lose everything, including the ones she loves. She seeks out the frighteningly scarred, yet mysterious W, a Calvert descendant who is destined to change her life, but even he cannot prepare her for the danger that lies ahead. However, when an ancient prophecy reveals the rise of a young, powerful Chesapeake witch and the impending death of another, she realizes she can no longer afford to suppress the magic that has taken away so much. Although a stranger to her coven in Annapolis, she is no stranger to grief and denial. Sixteen-year-old Hannah Fitzgerald has always known she is descended from a troubled legacy of magic.
