This simmering blend of occult mystery and suspense incorporates a rich melange of magickal ingredients – from amulets, crystals, the tarot, past lives and elemental beings to near-death experiences, shape shifting and modern magickal ritual – to show the subtle ways psychic phenomena can intrude into anyone’s life and influence even the most “rational” of people ....

Rian McGuire is a seemingly ordinary young woman who owns a New Age book and herb shop in a small Maryland town. When a disturbing man leaves a mysterious old book in Rian’s shop – a book worth committing murder to recover – and begins to invade her dreams, she is launched into a bizarre, often terrifying journey into the arcane.

As Rian’s family and friends gather psychic forces to penetrate the mysteries that surround her, Rian finally learns the RagBone Man’s true identity. But will she be able to harness the undreamt-of power of her own magickal birthright before the final terrifying confrontations?
