On the haunted streets of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, grief has a voice-and Willow Edwards can hear it. Willow owns Widow's Weeds, a small mourning museum dedicated to relics of loss: Victorian hair jewelry and postmortem photographs. To the public, it's a curiosity. To Willow, it's her calling. When she touches an object, the past speaks - memories and emotions appear in visions. But when a crepe silk mourning veil from the Civil War is mysteriously donated to Willow's museum, a tormented spirit brings visions unlike any she has seen - violent, persistent, and dangerously unfinished. The spirit connected to the artifact is trapped beyond death, and its story is intertwined with secrets buried deep in Gettysburg's blood-soaked history. As the line between past and present begins to blur, Willow turns to her assistant Carrie Bell and local historian Eli Mercer for help.
With time running out, Willow must decide how much of herself she's willing to sacrifice to give the dead their peace - especially when listening too closely might cost her the future she's worked hard to build. Atmospheric and haunting, Widow's Weeds is a gothic paranormal novel about memory, mourning, and the echoes that refuse to fade.
