Buying a run-down farm in a beautiful Vermont town is the
start of a new life for Sophie Davis. She moves her
mother, Grace, and her half sister, Marty, out of the
city, hoping the change will help both women sort out
their complicated lives. And for Sophie, turning Stonegate
Farm into a quaint country inn is the fulfillment of a
lifelong dream. She doesn't even mind that the farm was
the scene of a grisly multiple murder twenty years
earlier . . .
Then a stranger comes to town.
When a stranger moves in next to the farm, Sophie believes
the sense of peace she has built for herself and her
family is being threatened. Because there's something
different about John Smith. It's clear he's keeping
secrets . . . and that he's come to Colby, Vermont, for a
reason. And that reason has something to do with Sophie
and Stonegate Farm.
Now her dream is becoming a nightmare.
Who is John Smith? Why does his very presence make Sophie
feel so completely out of control? And why is she
beginning to suspect that this mysterious stranger will
put in jeopardy everything she's dreamed of -- maybe even
her own life?
