A 300-year-old cold case. A ruthless killer. And a retired detective who just discovered she’s a witch.Former Portland homicide detective Sam Blackwood thought she had finally found peace in the small coastal town of Moonhaven, Maine. She has her grandmother’s historic cliffside house, a fiercely loyal Border Collie named Moss, and a 19th-century maritime captain ghost named Ezra for a partner. But peace is a luxury a Blackwood Guardian can’t afford.
When Sam uncovers a 1692 diary written by Margery Thorne—the very first Guardian, who was falsely executed for witchcraft—she realizes the town’s dark history isn’t just history. Margery’s spirit is trapped at the bottom of the freezing Atlantic, and the ancient magical seal protecting Moonhaven’s energy is slowly failing.
Worse, Sam isn’t the only one looking for the underwater anchor. A cold, methodical killer is already in Moonhaven—and he’s already proven he’ll remove anyone in his way. Armed with stolen colonial artifacts and deep-water diving gear, he is racing against the new moon tide to destroy the town’s protective barrier forever.
With the help of a brilliant historian, a local doctor, a guilt-ridden antique dealer, her trusty dog, and a very angry ghost, Sam must build a trap of her own. To save her new home and free a trapped soul, she’ll have to solve a three-century-old murder—and stop a modern-day killer before he escapes.
