Mortgaged Goods

By Lorraine Cobcroft

She survived a childhood of trauma to build a flawless new life. But some secrets refuse to remain buried.

Natalya Popovich survived a past defined by loss. Now living as Natalie Dreyer, she has everything she once believed was impossible: a prestigious career as a respected Melbourne attorney, a seemingly loving marriage, and the deep stability of the foster family who chose her when she needed them most.

But beneath the surface of her carefully reconstructed world, dangerous cracks are beginning to form.

Her marriage to fellow lawyer Karl Albrecht is straining under a silent weight he refuses to confront. Worse, her devoted immigrant foster parents are quietly guarding a devastating truth-one that threatens to undo everything Natalie believes about her identity and her past.

As long-hidden realities collide with buried memories, Natalie is forced to confront the true cost of reinvention. What began as a journey of ambition and renewal rapidly spirals into a high-stakes psychological drama where love, loyalty, and survival are pushed to the absolute limit.
