EXCERPT: “You do have the sight, luve.” She gave me a sympathetic look. “I don’t have it myself, though I’ve heard it is both a blessing and curse. I imagine it can be a bit troublesome and frightening to dream of the dead.” “It was kind of strange, but it only happened with the one, uhm, spirit. It’s not like I experience it all the time.” “Aye. Well, if it happened once, there is always the possibility it could happen again. You’ll need to take care at Anchoret House.” “Anchoret House?” I asked. “John McAfee’s house. “Oh. I didn’t know that was the name of his house.” I paused. “Why do I need to be careful at his house?” I asked. “Well, Anchoret House is a house of tragedy. Then there’s Balairie, of course. It’s an old village built on an even older village.” I looked at her blankly. “Restless spirits, luve. There is many a poor lost soul wandering the moors. It may cause some trouble for you.” “Pour lost souls?” I asked, as a strange feeling of foreboding rippled along my backbone. “The dead, luve. They do wander.” She fixed me with a serious look. “You’ll need to protect yourself.” “Protect myself?” I repeated, noticing that I was beginning to sound a bit like a parrot. “From the dead, lass. You’ll need to protect yourself from the dead.” Buy Your Copy Today |
