Undercurrents
In 1860, Hannah True, a single woman, is without an income when the man she almost married ten years before, Paul Simmons, makes a new proposal, one that pulls her into the controversial world of Spiritualism sweeping America.
As attorney for the Spirit Seekers, Paul convinces Hannah to take a job as pamphlet writer for the group and move to their rural commune.
Detectives Vance Hollandar and Victoria Nelson caution Hannah against the arrangement, warning her that while on the surface the members seem devoted to harmonious living, the number of “accidental” deaths that have taken place since the group’s founding says otherwise.
Undeterred by their advice, Hannah moves to the colony where she meets a young girl with amnesia. Making it her mission to find out what caused the memory loss, Hannah digs deep into the girl’s past and is stunned by the chilling atrocities greed has driven certain members to.

The story was ok but the audio version narration is computer generated and monotone. I would not bother with this on audio..

Aunt Hannah, from the "Pierce Family Saga," is pursuing her desire to change the world for women. She has decided to travel to New York hoping to continue her support of the suffragettes and to stay for a time with her aunt Gertrude. Hannah finds that Paul Simmons has been asking about her.
Paul and Hannah were engaged at one time and when Hannah had to make a choice to stay in Chicago to take care of a family hotel she and Paul had parted. It seems Paul is deeply involved with a group called the Spirit Seekers and soon Hannah is pulled into the middle of the life in the compound.
Hannah has to navigate the muddy waters of lies and truth and lies to find her way through this chapter of her life.
Hazel Hart always does her homework historically and keeps us hoping for the family to somehow find a way to heal and bring Aunt Hannah and the Pierce girls together for good.
