"In the Hour of Crows" by Dana Elmendorf weaves a captivating tale set in the mystical backdrop of Appalachia, where traditions and superstitions reign supreme. Weatherly Opal Wilder possesses the rare gift of being a Death Talker, able to coax the dying back from the brink of death with her words, but at the cost of never being able to save the same person twice.

When her cousin Adaire, a Scryer with the power to glimpse the future, dies in what Weatherly suspects is no accident, she embarks on a quest for justice.

As suspicions mount against Weatherly, particularly when she fails to save the mayor's son, she becomes the prime suspect in a town rife with secrets and whispers.
