In 1855, Goodwin Mill became an overnight powerhouse. But in Belsever, Missouri, does this year’s demonstration grind up more than wheat?

When a client’s missing ancestor was dubbed Crazy Al, unearthing the details of his life is sure to be a challenge. Fortunately, West Genealogy specializes in that sort of thing. A visit to his last known location should dust off a few skeletons for his descendant.

So why does the trail grow cold when they hit Belsever? And why does each new clue seem to revolve around Goodwin Mill?

A nighttime trek to sift out answers—and exorcise her own demons—finds Audie swirling in the building’s massive shadow. When the inky blackness is shattered by ghostly specters, is it all in her head?

“Everyone will know.” Those words were clear enough.
Odd that they came from
within the locked brick behemoth.

Soon, the water wheel is churning up more than Silver Creek, and questions once sealed in stone foundations drift into the combustible air.

But Jude only wants one answer: is Audie a witness to a crime?

What have the Wests driven their little camper into this time? And can they get out before somebody throws another wrench into the millworks?
