Books like Buried Thunder

The whole book I was so intrigued..... I just wanted to read on and find out what was really going on. Well we found out 2/3 of the mystery. We found out who was behind the murders and the decapitation of the foxes and headless trees, but why was the fox communicating with maya? And what happened at the beginning with the bodies? It said the figure was Maya herself... But what, did Maya go in to future? Or what? I never really understood that part. Then there's the title.... It literally has NOTHING to do with the plot or story at all.
