New York Times bestselling
romance author Jude Deveraux makes her debut in the world of
mystery with a story of old secrets, deadly grudges and an
improbable group of friends who are determined to uncover
the truth regardless of the consequences…
Sara Medlar is a household name in romance, with millions of
books sold. But lately, retirement has been boring her and
she’s found herself back in her hometown of Lachlan,
Florida, remodeling the grand old mansion she’d admired as a
child. It’s much too big for her alone, but she’d die before
letting anyone in town know that.
Then Sara’s niece Kate is offered a job in Lachlan—a start
in what could be a very successful career in real estate.
She accepts immediately, but with so little saved up, she’ll
have to approach her estranged yet incredibly famous aunt
for a place to stay while she gets herself settled. But when
she arrives at Sara’s home, she finds she’s not the only
long-term houseguest. Jackson Wyatt already has his own
room, and though it’s impossible to deny his good looks and
charm—he’s clearly got her aunt wrapped around his
finger—she’s also never met anyone who irritates her quite
like Jack does.
However, when two skeletons are accidentally uncovered in
the quiet town, this unlikely trio is suddenly thrust
together by a common goal: to solve a mystery everyone else
seems eager to keep under wraps. United by a sense of
justice and the desire to right old wrongs, Sara, Kate and
Jack will have to dig into Lachlan’s murky past to unravel
the small town’s dark secrets and work to bring the awful
truth to light.
