Eleanor Murray will always remember her childhood on Edisto
Island, where her late father, a local shrimper, shared her

sister in a wheelchair—and the feelings she harbors for her
sister’s husband.
To help support her sister, Eleanor works at a Charleston

church and community. But now Eleanor will finally learn the
truth about their past: secrets that will help heal her
relationship with her own sister—and set Eleanor free....
