Stone and Shadows

Stone and Shadows is a brand new book releasing first in the U.S. from an author internationally renowned for her women's fiction and Jane Austen related fiction under the name Elizabeth Aston.

The handsome, mysteriously compelling owner of Beauregard Abbey, Nicholas Beauregard, must help Zuleika Rathbone as she traces the path of a murderous ancestor, rousing an unimaginable evil centered around a mystical violin. An unlikely romance amidst the havoc wreaked by practitioners of the dark arts takes the reader deep into the thrilling world of the occult.
