MEMORY AND DESIRE
Claire came to the English village to find her best friend, Melinda, who'dvanished after performing in a play which re-creates a seventeenth centurywitchcraft trial.
What she found was a murder mystery ù and a man.
A man who, like her, is trapped between memory and desire.
The play takes place at the manor house where the protagonists lived anddied, a house where the past is still a haunting presence. Did Melinda ask toomany questions about the village's tragic history? To find her, Claire, too, mustask questions. What she learns is that everyone in the village is playing a role ùnot just in the melodrama, but in real life.
Claire must walk a fine line between repeating the past and surviving thepresent. For if she puts one foot wrong she won't be seeing the future at all, letalone spending it with the man she's not only come to trust but to love.
