Real or ethereal, the story steeped in a Nova Scotia legend involving the apparition of a little girl who died more than a century earlier, moves forward at a riveting pace as, layer by layer, it peels back the secrets until the compelling and satisfying conclusion. Moulton is a master storyteller who captures the small-town mores that are the “real” Nova Scotia, and Cardinal is truly a unique ghost story that will keep you eagerly turning pages until the end.
