During a walk in the woods to find the settlement of the original witches of Salem, MA who, legend says, founded Twin Ponds back in 1692, a young couple uncover more than they bargained for. In a derelict cabin, they stumble upon the dead body of a man, tied spread eagle on a table, covered in blood. Sheriff Cammie Farnsworth and her team immediately begin their investigation. It isn’t long before they discover the deceased was an investigative journalist. But questions quickly arise. What was he doing in Twin Ponds? What kind of story would bring a man like that to such a small, remote town? And was the story he was pursuing responsible for his death?More importantly, are the legends about the original founders of Twin Ponds somehow linked to the journalist’s murder? As the investigation intensifies, Cammie is suddenly pulled into events she cannot understand. Or fight against. She finds herself forced to make a choice. Is she willing to risk her life to catch the murderer? Worse, is she willing to jeopardize the lives of those she loves to bring justice to a dead man?
