As Nathan spirals out of control, Mercy Willow realizes that she has to act. Teaming up with Nathan's daughter Lily, Mercy sets out to try to work out exactly who – or what – is haunting the Jenkins family home. She soon discovers, however, that everything she thought she knew about ghosts might have been very wrong right from the start.

Meanwhile, Mercy is facing a battle of her own. Her past is threatening to catch up to her, and an inner struggle is raging over her soul. Can she remain in control of her own body, or will her worst enemy finally find a way to break through?

The Haunting of Anna Jenkins is the fifth book in the Mercy Willow series, about an estate agent in deepest Cornwall who develops the unusual ability to communicate with ghosts. Readers are advised to start at the beginning of the series. This book ends on a cliffhanger.
