An antique cedar hope chest. A hidden panel. A century-spanning vendetta.

Mercedes Annalee Ellison held her Great-Great-Grand Aunt’s fragile journal and a tattered manila envelope, puzzling about whether these items would change her life. Her intuition screamed that they would, and the way they had come into her possession would make any skeptic pause. She wanted to bolt, to flee what loomed ahead.

Distractions were not welcome in her life right now. She was an architectural historian with three great jobs lined up for the summer–and a problem with her boyfriend.

When she finds herself entangled in a diabolical vendetta against her family over disputed land in England, Mercedes desperately searches for answers about why she is a target for something that happened back in the year 1900. A man murdered her ancestor, Claire Ellison, one night in an eerie storm, and only a miracle will save Mercedes from the same fate. Can she survive and accept her destiny as part of the legendary Ellison family?
