From page 56 in the paperback.
My mother gave them to me when I was fifteen. I didn’t want them, and she knew it. Back then, all I wanted was to get away from her, to get away from cards and readings and all that crazy spirit stuff. I hated it, growing up with all that. I wanted to get away from spirits and messages and the never-ending line of people with questions about the future, questions about the departed. But she put them in my hands and told me to save them – that there would come a day when I would need those cards to survive.

Synopsis
From the bestselling author of Miramont’s Ghost. Can a grieving widow unravel a message from the spirit world?
Elise Brooks dreams of a car accident on an icy road. Weeks later, her beloved husband, Michael, is killed in just such a crash. Now, overcome with grief and uncertainty, Elise believes his spirit may be following her in the form of a raven, trying to tell her something from beyond the grave.
Desperate to understand the signs, Elise embraces both the Native American wisdom she grew up with and the world of psychics and seers. So when a tarot-card reader suggests she take a journey to the mysterious address found in Michael’s old jacket, she embarks on a cross-country trek to follow the clues.
Accompanied by Tom Dugan, an engineer, and scientist who does not believe in psychics, mediums, or the hoodoo “conjure woman” they encounter on the road, Elise navigates the rituals and omens of the spirit world in an attempt to unravel the mystery of her husband’s message.
