In 1885 London, Lillian Freemont embarks on a treacherous journey to reunite with her long-lost niece who was abandoned at the Foundling Hospital eight years ago. Fueled by her sister's plea and armed with the gold token that identifies her niece, Lillian teams up with investigative reporter Matthew McGivern to expose the grim reality of the shadowed streets of London. As Lillian and Matthew unravel the mystery of Alice's disappearance, their partnership blossoms into one of shared purpose and undeniable attraction.
In present-day London, Janelle Spencer finds herself unexpectedly running the Foundling Museum. When filmmaker Jonas Conrad arrives to document the museum's history, their collaboration takes a surprising turn as they uncover articles from the past that shed light on a haunting connection to the present. As Janelle becomes caught between exposing the truth and protecting the museum's reputation, she must decide if she can risk everything for love and justice.
In this heartfelt dual-time tale, bestselling author Carrie Turansky weaves a story of two eras bridged by the quest for love and truth.

I finished this book in one day, I'm just in awe. It's an incredible story, and I literally couldn't put it down! The author took a hard subject, and wove your story into a beautiful tapestry filled with reality, but such love, grace, and mercy that it left me speechless, but rooting for love and justice the whole way thru! I normally do not enjoy dual time settings, but the dual time stories of Janelle and Lillian really molded together beautifully and really created a stunning tapestry filled with incredible characters, and a story where I felt like I was right there as it unfolded! This is definitely going to be a Kindle book I buy when I can save up for it!!! I really loved this story, and I can't wait for her next book!!!
