Description
Left at an orphanage as a child, Thea Reed vowed to find her mother someday. Now grown, her search takes her to Pleasant Valley, Wisconsin, in 1908. When clues lead her to a mental asylum, Thea uses her experience as a postmortem photographer to gain access and assist groundskeeper Simeon Coyle in photographing the patients and uncovering the secrets within. However, she never expected her personal quest would reawaken the legend of Misty Wayfair, a murdered woman who allegedly haunts the area and whose appearance portends death.
A century later, Heidi Lane receives a troubling letter from her mother - who is battling dementia - compelling her to travel to Pleasant Valley for answers to her own questions of identity. When she catches sight of a ghostly woman who haunts the asylum ruins in the woods, the long-standing story of Misty Wayfair returns - and with it, Heidi's fear for her own life.
As two women across time seek answers about their identities and heritage, can they overcome the threat of the mysterious curse that has them inextricably intertwined?

Fool Me Twice
I realized, a little too late, that I had listened to another book by this author before. And I had exactly the same experience. The synopsis mentioned nothing of the major overarching Christian themes. I was NOT expecting to be proselytized to. And boy, was I. Lots of wishy-washy, gentle, non-denominational Protestant preaching. Lots of promoting of "traditional" gender roles/romantic relationships, whilst paying lip service to women's empowerment. It was kind of awkward. I was expecting a supernatural mystery spanning a couple of time periods, with a mental institution. Which I sort of got, i guess, but...
The secular parts of the story/the mystery were actually kind of interesting and relatively well written. The mystery itself was fun. But the characters (particularly those in the present-set parts) were comically unlikable and acted in incredibly improbable ways, especially in their interpersonal relationships. The present-day main character was chronically incapable of reading a room. I felt so much secondary embarrassment. So much. And yet, I felt sorry for her, because we were supposed to see her as a prodigal daughter, but unlike the proverbial son, her family actually was awful.
Yeah, basically, not terrible, but know going in that it's Christian fiction.
