Although she was orphaned at birth, Eden Moore is never alone. Three dead women watch from the shadows, bound to protect her from harm. But in the woods a gunman waits, convinced that Eden is destined to follow her wicked great-grandfather--an African magician with the power to curse the living and raise the dead.
Now Eden must decipher the secret of the ghostly trio before a new enemy more dangerous than the fanatical assassin destroys what is left of her family. She will sift through lies in a Georgian ante-bellum mansion and climb through the haunted ruins of a 19th century hospital, desperately seeking the truth that will save her beloved aunt from the curse that threatens her life.

This was a free book that I bought from Kindle. I'm not sure what to make of it actually. I kind of consider it a short story and sounds like it is a stand alone book but I'm not sure.
It took a while to get into the story but it turned out ok. The main character is Eden and she see thigns. The paranormal runs in her family as her mother was committed to an insance asylum before she was born and her Aunt is raisingn her now. Through the years she has asked her Aunt about things but her Aunt puts her off. As a result when she reaches her twenties she goes off on her own to find out what or who she is.
There is a lot of what I would call Aftrican mysticism and in the end everything gets sorted out but there is an opening for more stories to be told.
I'm not sure I would recommend this book to anyone. It just wasn't my cup of tea but it wasn't painful to read.
