Permission - The Red Door Diaries, #1

She speaks with the dead.
But the living are the ones who want her destroyed.

Lady Gregory has buried her daughter, outrun her past, and built a fragile new life in the small town of Concord. By day, she protects two orphaned young women who depend on her for survival. By night, she survives in the only way a woman without privilege can—while secretly using a forbidden gift that no one must ever discover.

Lady Gregory can summon the spirits of the dead.

Grieving widowers seek her out in whispers and shadows, desperate for one last conversation. Every séance puts her closer to exposure. Every secret carries a price.

When women in Concord begin vanishing in brutal nighttime attacks, Lady Gregory tries to stay invisible. But the killings draw the attention of a determined deputy who wants more than her cooperation—and the murders begin circling dangerously close to the people she loves.

As the line between protector and predator blurs, Lady Gregory realizes the creature stalking the town may be tied to her own buried sins. To save her makeshift family, she must confront the darkness she's spent years running from and unlock the true limits of her power—even if doing so risks her soul.

Because some doors, once opened, can never be closed.
