Her second sight helps her in her new job: illustrating tarot cards for the Golden Dawn, a newly formed occult group.

For Conrad Burrell — husband, father, and successful attorney in the autumn of his life — the world has come apart.

After a lifetime of meeting the expectations of others, none are left but his own, and he must discover whether love survives death as well as divorce.
