  A small plane crashes in the Pennsylvania Wilds ... 
  ... and only Ann Kinnear has the ability to discover the force that brought it down. 
  Will the secret the victims carried die with them, or come back to haunt her? 
  Ann Kinnear is indulging her love of aviation by working toward her pilot’s license at Avondale Airport—and protecting her privacy by discouraging the attentions of a filmmaker intent on documenting her spirit-sensing abilities. 
  Little does she know that a fiery plane crash in the Pennsylvania Wilds will embroil her in a race to track down a contract on which two rivals are banking their futures. And when airshow pilot Gwen Burridge launches a smear campaign against Ann, she is even more determined to uncover the truth. 
  Ann travels to the crash site and learns what brought the plane down—but it’s only part of the story. 
  Will Ann land safely, or be the latest victim of a secret someone is willing to kill to keep? 
  Find out now in Book 3 of the Ann Kinnear Suspense Novels! 
  'Tis unnatural,  
  Even like the deed that's done. On Tuesday last,  
  A falcon, towering in her pride of place,  
  Was by a mousing owl hawk'd at and kill'd. 
  — William Shakespeare, "Macbeth"

  "The Tree" is a macabre short story by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft. It was written in 1920, and published in October 1921 in The Tryout. Set in ancient Greece, the story concerns two sculptors who accept a commission with ironic consequences.On a slope of Mount Maenalus in Arcadia is an olive grove that grows around a marble tomb and the ruin of an old villa. There, one gigantic tree resembles a frighteningly distorted man, and the roots of the tree have shifted the blocks of the tomb.The narrator explains that the beekeeper who lives next door told him a story about the tree: Two renowned sculptors, Kalos and Musides, lived in the colonnaded villa, which was "resplendent" in its day. Both men created works that were widely known and celebrated. They were devoted friends, but different in disposition: Musides enjoyed the nightlife, while Kalos preferred the quiet of the olive grove. It was there he was said to receive his inspiration...The end of the story recalls the Latin aphorism that precedes the text: "Fata viam invenient" ("fate will find a way").
