With America''s entrance into the Second World War, the town of Blackberry Springs, Alabama, has exploded virtually overnight. Workers from all over are coming south for jobs in Uncle Sam''s munitions plants--and they''re bringing their pasts with them, right into Dolly Chandler''s grand but fading family home turned boardinghouse.

But the house has a past of its own.

When tragedy strikes, Dolly''s only hope will be the circle of friends under her roof and their ability to discover the truth about what happened to a young bride who lived there a century before.

Award-winning and bestselling author Valerie Fraser Luesse breathes life into a cast of unforgettable characters in this complex and comp
