She deals in facts.
He lives with an impossible truth.

IONA: My career was a graveyard of broken dreams, and Bluestone Crest Farm was supposed to be just another headstone. I came to investigate a complaint, but I found Tristan Caddell, a fiercely protective guardian with haunted eyes, and a darkness in his fields that defies all logic. I should be running away, but my heart is telling me to stay and fight for a truth my rulebook never prepared me for.

TRISTAN: I’ve been struggling to give my niece and nephew the peace they deserve for almost a year. Until Iona Sterling, with her official badge and analytical eyes, shows up to threaten all of it. My every instinct tells me to send her packing, but her courage and persistence make her down right irresistible. Keeping her at a distance will protect both her and my family, but I'm starting to realize that letting her in might be the only way for my fragile peace to survive.

Forming a reluctant alliance, Iona and Tristan must unravel a mysterious phenomenon that haunts the Preseli Hills. As they get closer to a truth that defies explanation, they must decide if their connection is strong enough to overcome a discovery that could cost them everything.
