Secrets from the Antediluvian World: The Magical Wisdom of AtlantisSinger Island is an exciting and mysterious adventure tale set in the barrier islands of Florida. When Mary is only eighteen, her father dies and leaves her his secluded estate of Singer Island. Mary hasn't been there since her birth. On her return to the island strange visions begin to come to her. Mary soon realizes that she is being haunted. Mary dreams of being in the center of the island at an altar, she feels evil all around her, then she awakens to a cold room. Her room is always cold, no matter how hot it is outside. She sees fleeting images in the upstairs hall near the stairs to the third floor. When she calls out they disappear. Mary learns from Priscilla that her mother died here on Singer Island after her birth. Her mother, Beth, was always talking about her room being cold and seeing people on the upstairs landing. Priscilla thought it was from the fact the island was isolated and that Beth was young and far from home. Before Mary was born Beth went insane. Her father Charles was overwrought with guilt for bringing her to the place she feared the most. After Mary's birth, Beth died. Charles could not stay on the island where Beth was so tormented, so he asked Priscilla to take Mary for awhile until he recovered. Priscilla took Mary to Monet where she had a small cottage and raised her. Mary never knew her father or mother, and now she was here on the island to try to find her past. |
