    About this ebook

    Valley of Mystery is the Second of four titles of the Demesne series.

    Aithera passes an old man along the road as she is traveling again. She feels drawn to help him survive a sudden snowstorm and a mystery begins to unfold, about his past and where he is from. Another victim of the sudden snowstorm assists her. Is this a chance meeting or are some other forces involved? In helping the old man it is discovered that he has an amulet, and it is broken, it’s magic scattered, much like the old man’s mind. Aithera and Jira set out to find the pieces and with each piece found, Devon gets better and stronger.

    Shawna, once an alley of the family line, now seeks to make sure there will be no more from that line, and is the minion of one of those forces involved with the valley. The last of her dragon kind, she seeks to end the last of the Pellinore line and insure that the heart, soul, and sprit of the valley end.

    Aithera will have to face her nightmares from her orphaned past. Jira will find that she is not the simple farm girl and Devon will return to his greatest pain.

    Valley of Mystery just might create more questions than it answers.
