Cry at Midnight

by Mildred A. Wirt Benson

Peggy Parker, an amateur sleuth, finds herself drawn into a mysterious and unsettling situation when she and her friend witness an unexplained light and hear a scream coming from an abandoned monastery near their town. Their curiosity leads them to discover that the monastery is far from abandoned, and a secretive cult resides within its walls. As Peggy delves deeper into the mystery, she encounters strange occurrences, hidden agendas, and individuals with unsettling secrets. The 'Cry at Midnight' becomes a haunting presence, driving Peggy to unravel the truth and expose the dark secrets lurking beneath the surface of the seemingly peaceful town.
