After witnessing her husband's brutal murder, Megan retreats to a tiny Oklahoma village where she hopes to rebuild her life. But now it is not just her own memories that haunt her: Ghosts and memories of the people who dwelt on the same land in the 1800s complicate her emotional recovery. And real life isn't much fun either, with the local police knocking down her door in the dead of night . . . .
