My Review: This is the first novel by Heather Marie Adkins that I have read, she is a new to me author.

I loved this short story it was fabulously haunting. I like reading  paranormal type stories.

Rebecca is a widow and a mother who works in a museum as a technician but loses that job and goes to work for another museum called the Ancient and she becomes the curator for the Garneria exhibit which she really didn't was due to her being an Empath and Garneria has a lot of evil energy.

Rebecca's daughter Adara likes to read tarot cards and is a little psychic, she read her tarot cards 3 times for her mum and each time the lovers card came up, later on she read the cards and found that something bad was happening to her mums new lover.

Darren is Rebecca's new boyfriend who is the head curator at the Ancient, he like Rebecca doesn't like the Garneria exhibit and it turns out that he is also an Empath but he isn't as strong as Rebecca. 

After a date with Rebecca Darren goes missing and he ends up inside Garneria and Rebecca has to rush to save his life putting herself at risk.
