Jeremy Marsh, a scientific journalist from New York City who specializes in debunking paranormal claims, travels to Boone Creek, North Carolina, to investigate ghostly lights appearing in a local cemetery. While attempting to find a rational explanation for the phenomena, he meets Lexie Darnell, the town librarian who manages the local archives. Jeremy faces a conflict between his professional commitment to logic and his growing attraction to Lexie, which forces him to reconsider his skepticism regarding faith and unexplained connections.
This book is for readers who enjoy stories about the tension between urban cynicism and small-town traditionalism. It appeals to those interested in how logic navigates the mysteries of attraction and the personal sacrifices required for a long-distance relationship. Readers walk away with a depiction of how a professional skeptic adjusts his worldview when logistical realities and personal history complicate a potential romance. It provides a standard example of the contemporary romantic drama genre focused on personal growth.
Practical, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
