    About this ebook

    Magic runs through Dr. Arienne Cerasola's veins. As an archaeologist, she can't explain to people that sometimes she just feels the magic in a location or an object - they'd laugh her out of the profession for that. In this short story (approximately 7,900 words) she discovers some curious writing on the stones in an Irish Cathedral and she can't resist the urge to investigate. Her boss - the arrogant archaeologist Dr. Stanley Ash doesn't approve- as far as he's concerned, the writing is nothing more than indecipherable scratches. When Arienne decides to investigate, she learns that it's not always wise to read some messages aloud.

    R. Leonia Shea

    I much prefer "Leigh", it's easier to spell (everyone misses the "i" in Leonia) and people tend to shorten names anyway. When I'm not writing, I'm playing with my dog or watching the Food Network. I've been writing stories since I was a child and now feel as if I have begun to fulfill my life's purpose - naturally, my dog thinks my purpose is to give her treats...so I'm pretty good at that, too.
