IN BANEFORD, EVELYN MAY'S DISCOVERY OF A COLONIAL HOUSE WITH A TROUBLED PAST LEADS HER INTO A WORLD WHERE THE DEAD WALK AND SECRETS ARE DEADLY.
In "Ritual at Dyeworks," the second book of Ali Kaden's Baneford series, real estate broker Evelyn May finds herself at the heart of a sinister transformation. After a mysterious explosion near her office, Evelyn, alongside the spiritual medium Adrian, delves into the town's shadowed past, uncovering secrets that refuse to stay buried.
When a prestigious development group, led by the enigmatic Ursula Hyde, plans to renovate the dilapidated Dyeworks tannery, it seems like a boon for Baneford. But as Mayor Jenkins supports the project, hoping to revive the town's economy, unsettling occurrences begin to surface. The tannery, with its dark history, becomes the nexus of unexplained phenomena, drawing Evelyn and Adrian into a vortex of spectral hauntings and cultic legacies.
Amidst the town's transformation, they encounter a cult with deep roots in Baneford's past, whose sinister agenda threatens to use the development project as a façade for darker purposes. As Evelyn navigates through the intertwined fates of the living and the dead, she realizes that the redevelopment of Dyeworks is a mere front for the cult's ritualistic ambitions, aiming to awaken a malevolent force that could consume the town and its residents.
With its blend of eerie hauntings, a mysterious cult, and a town on the brink of change, "Ritual at Dyeworks" offers a thrilling journey through the haunted legacy of Baneford, making it a must-read for fans of ghostly suspense and dark historical mysteries.
For fans of the haunted atmospheres in Shirley Jackson's works, the complex characters of Stephen King's small-town sagas, and the intricate plotting of Dan Simmons' "Summer of Night."
