She left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces thro' the room,
She saw the water-lily bloom,
She saw the helmet and the plume,
She look'd down to Camelot.
Out flew the web and floated wide;
The mirror crack'd from side to side;
"The curse is come upon me," cried
The Lady of Shalott.

In "The Soul Shredder" a psychiatrist's unusual patient opens his eyes to a disturbing new view of reality, while in "Wildflowers" a woman strikes up a supernatural friendship with impossible implications. And in "The Left Palm" a fortuneteller in the French Quarter receives a most unexpected and terrifying customer.

What would you do if your destiny was ruining your life?
"After all we are all travelers through this life we have chosen. But to veer off course, to choose a path that is not for you. I wonder if that would truly ever bring you any peace." The words, spoken to her long ago by a beloved mentor, Dominick Trevor, seem to haunt her life at every juncture.

But beneath this thin veneer she hides a secret gift that is once a blessing and a curse. She is a sensitive, a deeply empathetic psychic whose guided lifework has been helping those she can with her gift. And as a consequence, forcing her own life, desires, and needs into near non-existence.

Dragonflies:Journeys into the Paranormal by Evelyn Klebert
In every form of creation there is a blueprint for living, for experience, for interpretation. In flight they can twist, turn, alter direction, pause in midair, and even fly backwards. The dragonfly is the master of adaptability. They are a living prism, refracting light and color, seemingly shifting their essence.
The lesson they give is that life is never what it appears to be.
In "The Wizard," as a novice practitioner of magic, Aurora Finn finds herself battling against the illusions of a powerful wizard intent on separating her from the world she knows.
"The Sojourners" is a gentle story of a mother and daughter whose tenancy in an old Virginia farmhouse uncovers the trials and sorrows of its former occupants.
A bookstore clerk gets an extraordinary customer on Halloween night in "Late One Night At Berstrum's Books. . ."
In "The Tear," a woman coping with her own fatal illness unknowingly begins a trek on a mystical journey that will entirely restructure her vision of the world.
The stories follow the path of the dragonfly imbued with the momentum and the energy of change, taking a winding and treacherous journey that ultimately leads to truth buried beneath perception.
