The dead cry loudest in country silence, at Killstone Bridge Radnor "Mac" MacDavid knows a couple of rudimentary rules of life. The first is you should accept any job offer if you're a mason down on his luck. The second is that you shouldn't mess with forces you don't understand. While fixing an old stone bridge in the farming community of Sancta Genoveva, Mac tries to focus on work, and his ailing professional self-confidence, but finds that the villagers, alive and dead, keep getting in the way. His accommodation is The Belmore Inn, a B & B with flair. It prides itself on historical weekends for guests. Mac arrives in time for the 1920s "Gatsby Days," complete with jazz and croquet on the lawn. The proprietor, Eve Gibbons and her husband Marshal, expect the mason to attend all events in appropriate attire. It's a good thing he's had that kilt sitting in his car since the last Clan Davidson reunion. No one asks too many questions of the new stranger in town when he's decked out in a kilt. Except for Gaul Hixton, the son of the town mayor and Eve's best friend. He knows more about his hometown of San Geno than just about anyone. The good, the gossipy, and the bad. The more Gaul tries to keep Mac and the mayor apart, the more Mac wonders what's really going on, and the more he starts to care about Gaul. Mac finds more than stones at the old bridge. He finds evidence of a crime that'd taken place years before. Using the help of old and new friends, Mac inadvertently mortars himself into an investigation. But there's a little more to the spooky old bridge than an eerie presence that prefers country music and creepy breezes across the fields of corn. The deeper Mac gets into the murderous history of the town, the more weird his friends get, and the more danger all of them are in.
