With Forked Tongue

About the Book

According to legend, somewhere beneath the 50 thousand acres of man-made Lake Murray, lie the graves of the only accused witches ever executed in South Carolina.

Kate Martin has become obsessed with this legend of her beloved home, or so her friends and family believe. In a tale of testing faith—perverted, faltering, profane, and pious – Kate struggles to discover the truth behind a blighted belief in the supernatural while she deals with her own doubts and demons of a very mortal sort. As she peels away the layers of fantasy surrounding the myth of madness and mayhem, she is drawn dangerously deep into heresy and evil, until twenty-first century and eighteenth century begin to blur and the hiss of a sinister legend becomes the din of monsters.
