A haunting Southern Gothic mystery where dark magic meets deadly secrets, and a daughter must uncover the truth about her mother before it’s too late. Arkansas, 1999. Eighteen-year-old Raven Moore has spent her entire life trying to outrun her mother’s dark reputation. Twelve years ago, two bodies were found burned in a field at the base of the Hill, and Raven’s mother, Deanne—the woman they called the Wind Witch—was convicted of their murders. Three days ago, Deanne died in an asylum, without ever speaking a word in her own defense. Then, at the funeral, a stranger appears with a red feather in his hand. He knows things about Raven’s mother that no one in Silverfield will speak aloud. Things about the Hill People—a community rumored to practice witchcraft who vanished the day Deanne was locked away. Things about the wind, and blood, and the gift that runs in Raven’s veins . .
. whether she believes in it or not. Raised by her fiercely religious grandmother to fear everything her mother represented, Raven’s life has been built on secrets and doubt. But when the past reaches out to claim her, she must choose: remain in the world that has always feared her, or step into the legacy her mother left behind. Because the wind remembers what everyone else has forgotten. And some murders were never what they seemed . . . A captivatingly dark, unsettling novel of secrets, lies, superstition, and murder, for fans of Tana French and Rebecca James.
