Summary: Where ghosts tread, black feathers fall . . .

Edward's sister, Iris, still lives in the family home. A taxidermist and medium, she urges Annie to watch out for black feathers--claiming that they mark the spot where a spirit has visited. At first, Annie dismisses these warnings. But before long, she begins to feel haunted. What exactly happened to Edward's first wife? Why is Iris so disturbed? And should Annie really be watching for signs from the dead--when it seems that she is the one being watched? Set in the atmospheric Yorkshire moors in the nineteenth century, this ghostly tale of magic and wickedness will chill you to the bone.
