An ambitious and dynamic debut novel, “When the Owl Sings” centers around Mason Rhimes, a journalist whose ominous dreams hold the key that links him to an ancient Maya civilization that disappeared without a trace. Still reeling from the death of his fiancee, Mason sets out on a personal quest to find answers to the foreboding and spine-chilling events that torture him nightly. Masons path will lead him to a town where nothing is as it appears, and where he quickly becomes an unwitting participant in a web of deceit and lies.
