Still recovering from the fire at Sagamore Road, and what she witnessed there, Robin Hanley's daughter, Tess, is the one speaking to the ghost of Fryderyk Chopin now. Having inherited the abilities shared by her rock musician father and her witch stepmother, Tess must discover what started the long history of witches culminating in her family, and why they have the abilities they do. To accomplish this, she must delve back to pre-Dynastic Egypt, and the very first incarnation.
As Tess struggles to convince them that they might still be in danger, Robin and his wife, Suze, face the loss of a loved one and seek to counsel the troubled spirit of Suze's cousin, Angie, an unwilling accomplice to the family secret.
Desperate to carry on the archaeological research of Suze's late father, Tess must find the only person capable of giving her the missing facts to discover the cause of the phenomenon before it returns to strike at them again.
The second in Cary Marc Grossman's three-part Chopin's Family series, The House on Sagamore Road takes the reader back 26,000 years, to the birth of civilization.
