The only life Ruby Proulx has ever known is traveling across the country with her snake-oil salesman father and reading tarot cards. After one of her father's medical miracles goes deadly wrong, Ruby escapes to her Aunt's hotel at the seaside resort town of Old Orchard. It's a unique hotel, a hotel that caters to spiritualists, a place where Ruby can hide. But when a psychic investigator checks into the inn, Ruby finds herself trying to escape both his attention and Aunt Honoria's insistence that she has a true gift, before she loses her precious new home and family forever
"Old Orchard, Maine, at the turn of the 20th century provides the setting for Estevao's excellent series launch. The richness of the character backstories allows Estevao to strike a perfect balance, neither relying on a deus ex machina ending nor telegraphing the solution too early."--publishersweekly.com
