Description

In Umbra River, California, the closets are full of skeletons. Unsettled spirits. Missing children. Family secrets. The Geode Cafe and Bookshop is the nucleus of life and friendship where, on Friday nights, Olivia, the owner, hosts her two best friends over dinner and wine. Anna, who owns Besties, a pet rescue and supply store next door, is a psychic animal communicator and a non-practicing veterinarian. Emmaline, a young widow, is a trauma survivor trying to find her way. She's also the mother to Charlie, a four-year-old with a psychic gift.

Woven into the town's history are stories of the mistreatment of 19th century immigrant workers, a forgotten massacre, and unrequited grief. Eavesdrop as the three women struggle to make sense of their lives while current events terrorize and mobilize the community.
