Blood runs cold--especially in this family. Thanks to a newfound connection with his natural father, librarian Jordan Poteet is suddenly a member of a rich Texas dynasty. But a series of poison-pen letters warns him to stay away from the Goertz family reunion on a Gulf Coast island. He soon wishes he had, because his new kinfolk--four generations of them--are hiding secrets deep and dark enough to taint an entire bloodline. And an unexpected death makes it chillingly clear that the anonymous hate mail directed at Jordan isn't a joke. Ghosts of the violent past are walking. A murderer is on the move. And a terrible unfolding of tragedy has begun that will spare no one--not even Jordan himself. . . .

In 1890, Anton Chekhov, already a prominent Russian literary figure, travelled 6,500 miles to Sakhalin island, off the coast of Siberia. Willing visitors to this island were rare; rather, its inhabitants were people who had been sent there: prisoners and their families, guards, soldiers, and doctors. What was it that Chekhov sought on this terrible island? Almost a century later, James McConkey traveled to Italy and researched Chekhov's letters, memoirs, and an account of his journey to Sakhalin island. McConkey recreates that journey, weaving it with his own and telling two stories that reveal the peculiar and hidden forces that shape our lives.

The man was determined to see what happened and he climbed and climbed the mountain while in distance he was hearing the sound of scared animals even the monsters were scared and crying. But he did not let this stop him and he pushed forward and forward until he reached the pick of the Mountain; there he saw something that he had never seen before it was a blue but bright light that was eating the vegetation even the stones seem to cry, a bluish light. He approached a big blue and broken object it seemed to be a stone, he tried to touch it but it was too hot; he could not understand what he was seeing; he approached the liquid and the liquid itself was hot and hurt his hand as he was approaching the blue stone that was in front of him it seem to create a heat around him and it was sending more and more heat.
