Cedar and Oak to Burn a Witch Past and present collide in a Cape Cod town

A haunting and terrifying tale of love, betrayal, and perverted justice.
Alternating between the present and past, the story is told from two perspectives, that of the historian rooting around for the truth, and that of the victim anxious to clear her name. A witch burning that never made it into the history books. Not in Salem, Massachusetts, but in the little sleepy fishing village of Wellfleet on Cape Cod.
When professor of New England Colonial history Emily Jones settles into the old family farmhouse, Bound Brook Island Farm, built in the eighteenth century by her Welsh ancestors, she plans to research her family's story for a non-fiction book detailing the daily life of a typical Cape Cod family before the peninsula became a tourist Mecca. A simple but interesting story, it seems, until she, just by chance, runs into an old battered headstone that leads her into a vortex of deep dark family secrets. Secrets hidden not only by her family, but by a half dozen prominent early settler families. Secrets that defy credibility! Soon, she realizes that if she tells this seemingly implausible story, she could be risking both her reputation and career.
When her sister April arrives for the summer and begins receiving "messages" and having otherworldly experiences, all hell breaks loose. Almost literally.
Mystery, history, ghosts, and two love stories, one current and one lost in the mists of time, make this a book not soon put down or forgotten after read.
