When the past is unlocked, no telling what will come out… Shannon Pryce is slowly settling into small-town life, but with a psychic gift like hers to hide, fitting in is more of a challenge. If she's ever to put down real roots in Petrie's Crossing's red-clay soil, it's time to widen her circle beyond a few friends, acquaintances, and one smoking-hot lover. It's also time to solve the mystery of the next object in her late Aunt Caroline's box, this time a brass key. Oddly enough, the key transmits the same disturbing impressions she picks up inside the railroad museum-fire, smoke, pleas for help from an underground trap. Worse, the author who's been hounding her for an interview is asking too many personal questions-and threatening to show up on her doorstep. Can Shannon dig deep enough to find the key's rightful owner, heal a woman's broken heart, and find the strength to confront the ghosts of her own past?
