Haunt Me Still (Kate Stanley #2)

It’s the oldest temptation…


.

A legendary curse,
A witch-haunted king,
An ancient blade,
And modern murder…

 

“Thrill after thrill”… the “air of evil is relentless”

In a Nutshell

Kate Stanley returns after Interred With Their Bones, heading to Scotland to direct Shakespeare’s Macbeth. At the hilltop stronghold of the real King Macbeth, the play’s legendary evil begins to stir. An ancient blade goes missing, a trench fills with blood, and a body appears and disappears. Then a tarot card leads Kate to a terrifying scene of ritual sacrifice.

Marked as both suspect and future victim, Kate reunites with Ben Pearl to seek a killer and a cursed manuscript said to contain Shakespeare’s darkest secret.

Reviews

“Thrill after thrill”

The Washington Post

“A superbly plotted mystery… rife with witchcraft, murder and pagan rituals. The overall air of evil is relentless. Plan to drag it to lunch, dinner and bed until you reach the pitch-perfect conclusion.”

“About as much fun as you can have with a book of magic and murder.”
