Separated by tragedy, four women reunite at a historic lodge to solve the mystery that broke them apart--and threatens to ravage them once again in Agatha Award winning author Leslie Budewitz's suspense debut. The warning came to her in a dream at her family's historic lakeside lodge in northern Montana: danger is near. Now, twenty-five years later, Sarah McCaskill Carter is back at Whitetail Lodge with the group of four women who were driven apart by the tragic event her dream foretold. And Sarah's nightmares are back. This time, she sees a young woman in a white nightgown, barefoot, blond hair streaming, running in terror from the lodge to the lake. Was it just a dream--or something that points to a dark chapter far in the lodge's past? Sarah is not the first one to be haunted by prescient dreams at Whitetail Lodge. The original owner had ignored the warning signs that came to her in her sleep just before tragedy struck. Her guilt drove her to sell the property to Sarah's great-grandmother, who experienced her own nightmares. And so did Sarah's mother just two weeks earlier, as she prepared for her daughter's return to the lodge. Is the house sending a warning that another tragedy is about to befall the occupants of the lodge? As Sarah and her friends dig deeper into the past, they make a discovery that gives a chilling new meaning to the dreams. Now, they can no longer ignore the ominous portents from the past that point to a danger more present than any of them could know.
