When she felt the cold, hard metal barrel against her head, Grace closed her eyes tight and heard a fast ‘click’. She wasn’t surprised when the sharp, hot wind rushed across her face. She felt herself float above the street and saw the children. But they were too far away and hadn’t heard the shot. Alfred was below, shaking as he stood over her lifeless body with a gun in one hand and a bottle in the other. His thin, sickly frame was trembling and hot, angry tears streamed down his leathered face. No one would understand what brought him to this … Was it a family curse that led to the murder of Grace Harper at the hands of her husband in 1975? This is the question her great-granddaughter, Ellie, seeks to answer in The Other Side of Silence. Though Ellie has never met her great-grandmother in life, following a car accident, she awakes to find herself face-to-face with the woman who lived a lifetime before she was born. Through Grace, Ellie learns the family’s torrid past of witchcraft, infidelity, and a spell that has haunted them for generations. But, can she solve the family mystery? Or is it too late to learn from past mistakes and save herself?
