A psychic investigates a mysterious disappearance high in the Appalachian Mountains in this novel from a “Grand Master of her craft” (Barbara Michaels). It’s a legacy Christy Loren never wanted. The unwitting inheritor of her mother’s psychic gifts, the Long Island librarian assists in police investigations, but they’ve become too hard for her to bear. Too many victims. Too many shallow graves. So she’s fled to the peaceful foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains to stay with her aunt Nona. But Christy is soon drawn back into a world of terrifying visions—those of a female hiker who died under suspicious circumstances and an ethereal beauty named Deirdre who vanished into the mountain mist. Warned by her mother’s eerie premonitions, threatened by strangers, and aided by Deirdre’s tormented and attractive husband, Christy is beginning to see things no one else can. If there’s a link between the two mysteries, Christy will find it—if she’s not afraid to look deeper. New York Times–bestselling and Edgar Award–winning author Phyllis A.

Mists are an unforgettable natural event. Objects often vanish then re-appear before our eyes. Walking into a dense fog initiates realities of unseen worlds. Follow this metaphor of reality. Imagine foggy weather as a new experience for you. Parts of yourself become invisible. Even a stretched arm is handless! Shock! Then, instant relief as the hand reappears. Family and schools taught us. We were given lessons, about clocks, reading, writing and arithmetic. Then we practiced new skills. Problems arose because the synchronous magic of the infinite universe confused us.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author P. C. Cast comes INTO THE MIST, the first book in a pulse-pounding dystopian duology for our times. Practical Magic meets Station Eleven in this gripping take on female power and the inevitable, destructive path of violent patriarchies. As men fall to the mist, the age of womankind begins to rise. The world as we know it ends when an attack on the U.S. unleashes bombs that deliver fire and biological destruction. Along with sonic detonations and devastating earthquakes, the bombs have also brought the green mist. If breathed in, it is deadly to all men—but alters the body chemistry of many women, imbuing them with superhuman abilities. A group of high school teachers heading home from a conference experiences firsthand the strength of these new powers. Mercury Rhodes is the Warrior, possessing heightened physical powers. Stella Carver is the Seer, with a sixth sense about the future. Imani Andrews is the Watcher, with a rare connection to the earth. Karen Gay is the Priestess, demonstrating a special connection with Spirits. And Gemma Jenkins is the Healer, a sixteen-year-old student who joins the group after losing her parents. As they cross the Pacific Northwest, trying to find a safe place to ride out the apocalypse, the women soon learn they can't trust anyone, and with fresh danger around every corner, it will take all their powers to save themselves—and possibly the world. With timely commentary on power and community, Into the Mist delivers a thrilling and fantastical future that is equal parts a feminist commentary and an amazing, witty adventure filled with wine and women– as only P.C. Cast’s brilliant storytelling can bring to life.
