When a young woman returns to North Carolina after a thirty-year absence, she finds that the once grand tobacco plantation she called home holds more secrets than she ever imagined. Though Peak Plantation has been in her family for generations, Leslie Nichols canΓ’β¬β’t wait to rid herself of the farm left to her by her estranged grandmother MaggieΓ’β¬βand with it the disturbing memories of her motherΓ’β¬β’s death, her fatherΓ’β¬β’s disgrace, and her unhappy childhood. But Leslie isnΓ’β¬β’t the only one with a claim to Peak. Jay Davenport, PeakΓ’β¬β’s reclusive caretaker, has his own reasons for holding onto the land bequeathed to him by LeslieΓ’β¬β’s grandmother. Before she died, Maggie hinted at a terrible secret surrounding Adele Laveau, a ladyΓ’β¬β’s maid who came to Peak during the 1930s and died under mysterious circumstances. Jay is haunted by MaggieΓ’β¬β’s story, yet the truth eludes himΓ’β¬βuntil Leslie uncovers a cryptically marked grave on the property. As they delve into the mystery of AdeleΓ’β¬β’s death, Leslie and Jay discover shocking secrets that extend deep into the roots of LeslieΓ’β¬β’s family treeΓ’β¬βsecrets that have the power to alter her life forever.
