"A beautifully considered, sumptuous novel from a skilled storyteller."-Rose Auburn-Writing & Reviews

Lucky for readers, it was penned by a maestra like Anne Montgomery, so that we got a tense, powerful novel in the bargain too."-Jennifer deBie-Rosie Amber Book Reviews

ABOUT THE CASTLE:

Maggie, a National Park Ranger, is back at the Castle – an ancient Native American pueblo carved into the face of a limestone cliff in Arizona. 

 

Maggie, who suffers from depression, has been through several traumas: the gang rape she suffered while in the Coast Guard, the sudden death of her ten-year-old son, and a suicide attempt.

 

As part of her therapy Maggie volunteers at the local rape crisis clinic.   

 

Maggie has several men in her life. 

 

The baker, newcomer Jim Casey, always greets her with a warm smile and fills pink boxes with sweet delicacies. 

 

Brett Collins, a scuba diver, is doing scientific studies in Montezuma Well, a dangerous cylindrical depression that houses a deep spring filled with strange creatures found nowhere else on Earth.

 

Then there’s Dave, with whom she’s had a one-night stand, and her new boss Glen. 

 

One of these men is a serial rapist, and Maggie is his next target.
