What dark memories still shelter behind the Rosewood Manor walls?
When Lyndie Holbrook receives a letter from her grandfather after his death, she's stunned to learn she is actually Adelaide Rosewood, the long-missing heiress of Thornberry Woods. The night her mother died at the bottom of the Rosewood front staircase, Adelaide vanished without a trace.
But now, twenty years later, she's returned to Rosewood Manor—and the shadows haven't forgotten her.
She's come home to the crumbling estate draped in ivy and ghosts, where dust coats every surface and the past lingers in every room. Her mother's screams echo in the air. Somewhere in this decaying house, the truth is waiting. As Lyndie peels back the layers of her past, she begins to fear the tragedy wasn't an accident—but a warning.
Nate Sullivan is a true crime author who has spent years chasing ghosts of his own. Haunted by a night no one ever speaks of, he has one lead: Adelaide Rosewood. He didn't expect her to be alive. He didn't expect to care.
But the deeper they dig, they uncover clues that point to a hidden society, a killer with unfinished business, and a house that seems to be watching their every move. Someone doesn't want Lyndie to remember.
The answers might just be hidden in the walls of Rosewood Manor. But soon the search becomes a need to protect the woman who has stolen his heart, because she's now the target of a murderer's obsession.
A murderer much closer than Nate ever realized.
