Some stories haunt a family for generations.
This is the one that started it all-and the one that ends it.
In 1888, Pennsylvania, sixteen-year-old Sarah Baumer marries the man her guardian approves of-and learns too late the price of obedience. Within the walls of their Limeville farmhouse, she bears a daughter, Ivy, whose laughter becomes the only light in a house dimmed by silence and control. When diphtheria steals Ivy's breath one Christmas morning, Sarah's grief curdles into guilt, and guilt into defiance.
A year later, on the anniversary of Ivy's death, her husband's rage ends her mortal life-but not her presence. Bound to the home she once kept, Sarah endures the long years as shadow and ember, her sorrow ripening into power. She watches generations come and go, unwilling-or unable-to let go.
Now, as new inhabitants disturb the past, the walls begin to whisper. What began in love and loss burns toward a final reckoning-and a long-awaited reunion.
Shadows of Limeville is a dark and haunting tale that draws the Embers trilogy to a satisfying and unforgettable close.
