About the book
Just as fake medium Eleanor Wilde starts to develop feelings for Nicholas Hartford III and his charming family, she receives a call to journey to a secluded Scottish castle where a peculiar task to find a haunted treasure puts Eleanor's new relationship, her career...and her very existence at risk!
Being Sussex's local witch and fake psychic, Eleanor is no stranger to odd requests for otherworldly assistance. Therefore, when Nicholas's friend from university, Sid Stewart, sends a letter from the family's isolated castle in Scotland, pleading for Ellie's help as a medium, she is more than happy to oblige.
Reportedly, Glenn Stewart, the head of Sid's family who recently passed away, died without revealing the location of a valuable collection of family heirlooms. The Stewart family is hoping that a psychic can communicate with him from the other side. Although Ellie cannot truly communicate with the deceased, she pretends to possess this ability. She doesn't worry until...
While on the train to Oban, Ellie meets another psychic named Birdie White who is also on her way to the Outer Hebrides to help the Stewarts. Birdie is highly skilled in her craft, advising royalty and even assisting Scotland Yard. While Ellie may be skeptical of Birdie's intentions, she cannot deny her abilities.
While Birdie communicates with the dead, Ellie plans to interview the living suspects, specifically the residents and staff of the eerie Stewart estate, who seem to be hiding information. With rumors of cursed treasure, stories of ghostly pirates, and a series of supernatural murders, in order to solve the case, Ellie must face the terrifying possibility that her psychic gift may actually be real...
