The Dark Passage (Strange Sands, #4) / Strange Sands (ePub)

A bizarre souvenir from far away.

A painting of a pagan ritual.

An evil presence unlimited by time and space.

This unusual, faith-filled novella series is about the challenges faced by an architectural historian when the unseen realm affects her clients' properties. In Dark Passage, an aging adventurer named Doran Marlowe once served as a guide for missionary teams to unreached people groups. His unusual travel souvenirs are kept in a shuttered passage from his rambling house to his art studio, where his paintings begin to take on a bizarre, unearthly character.

His sister, Mary Lou, has retired from the mission field, discouraged and questioning her life's work. She returns to Bluffton, SC to live with her brother. They hired Mercedes Ellison for paperwork to remodel the historic building.

Mercedes is spending the summer in a nearby cottage, still hoping for boring clients as she plans her upcoming wedding. When she hears Mary Lou screaming on the veranda of Marlowe House and runs to help her, she's plunged into another bizarre mystery. Did a menacing presence follow her from a dig site she worked in the past?
