Child psychologist Lynn McLeod goes to the Blue Ridge Mountains to help 10-year-old Jilly, the daughter of her ex-husband Stephen. Soon the danger that involves them also engulfs her and the hypnotic sound of the singing stones lures her into a realm of mystery, murder and passion.

Light mystery. At 19, Lynn McLeod married Stephen Asche in Virginia. She was very much in love, and they had just started building their dream house. One night, they went to a show, and Stephen fell for the lead dancer. Lynn left town with a broken heart, and they divorced. Fast-forward 12 years, and Stephen's stepmother writes Lynn a letter asking Lynn to come to Virginia to help Stephen's daughter, Jilly, who is emotionally damaged. She witnessed a horrific "accident" where Stephen was severely injured and cannot walk and another man was killed. Turns out it was murder and Lynn ends up in the middle of everything. The killer is somewhat of a surprise but not much else. ( )
