Life can turn on a dime. Itโs a common clichรฉ, and Iโd heard it often enough. People die or move away. Investments go south. Affairs end. Loved ones betray us...Stuff happens.
Daisy McCraeโs life is in tatters. Sheโs lost her job, broken up with her boyfriend, and has been reduced to living in the attic above her familyโs store, the Union Street Bakery, while learning the business. Unfortunately, the bakery is in serious hardship. Making things worse is the constant feeling of not being a โrealโ McCrae since she was adopted as a child and has a less-than-perfect relationship with her two sisters.
Then a long-standing elderly customer passes away, and for some reason bequeaths Daisy a journal dating back to the 1850s, written by a slave girl named Susie. As she reads, Daisy learns more about her familyโand her own heritageโthan she ever dreamed. Haunted by dreams of the young Susie, who beckons Daisy to โfind her,โ she is compelled to look further into the past of the town and her family.
What she finds are the answers she has longed for her entire life, and a chance to begin again with the courage and desire she thought she lost for good.
