A woman uncovers earth-shattering secrets about her
husband's family in this chilling page-turner from New
York Times bestselling author Heather Gudenkauf
Sarah Quinlan's husband, Jack, has been haunted for
decades by the untimely death of his mother when he was
just a teenager, her body found in the cellar of their
family farm, the circumstances a mystery. The case rocked
the small farm town of Penny Gate, Iowa, where Jack was
raised, and for years Jack avoided returning home. But
when his beloved aunt Julia is in an accident,
hospitalized in a coma, Jack and Sarah are forced to
confront the past that they have long evaded.
Upon arriving in Penny Gate, Sarah and Jack are welcomed
by the family Jack left behind all those years ago—barely
a trace of the wounds that had once devastated them all.
But as facts about Julia's accident begin to surface,
Sarah realizes that nothing about the Quinlans is what it
seems. Caught in a flurry of unanswered questions, Sarah
dives deep into the puzzling rabbit hole of Jack's past.
But the farther in she climbs, the harder it is for her
to get out. And soon she is faced with a deadly truth she
may not be prepared for.
