Some secrets do not fade with time. They wait...
Long ago, in a mansion trembling beneath a storm-bruised sky, a young woman falls to her death, and a newborn vanishes into the night. The house vast, brooding, and hungry for remembrance holds its silence.
>Meanwhile, miles away, Suzanna's world has collapsed into a single, unbearable truth. Liam is gone. His disappearance has hollowed her, leaving her drifting through days that feel too sharp and nights that feel too long. Only Brooke, her steadfast shepherd, warm and grounding keeps her from unravelling completely. Yet even Brooke cannot shield her from the nightmares that come every night.
But the truth is far worse than anything she imagined.
Liam has been taken by Kellie. She has just delivered his child, with his eyes, and she clings to both baby and fantasy with a desperation that borders on madness. Liam, exhausted, is forced into an impossible choice and torn between the child in his arms and the wife he aches to return to, but his time is running out.
