A compelling novel about one womanโs search for the truth from the author of YOU WERE MEANT FOR ME.
After suffering a sudden, traumatic loss, historical novelist Susannah Gilmore decides to uproot her lifeโand the lives of her two childrenโand leave their beloved Brooklyn for the little town of Eastwood, New Hampshire.
While the trio adjusts to their new surroundings, Susannah is captivated by an unexpected find in her late parentsโ home: an unsigned love note addressed to her mother, in handwriting that is most definitely not her fatherโs.
Reeling from the thought that she never really knew her mother, Susannah finds mysteries everywhere she looks: in her daughterโs friendship with an older neighbor, in a charismatic local man to whom sheโs powerfully drawn, and in an eighteenth century crime sheโs researching for her next book. Compelled to dig into her motherโs past, Susannah discovers even more secrets, ones that surpass any fiction she could ever put to paper...
