Some places remember what people try to forget.
When Kate Gallagher takes a job at the historic Wormsloe estate, she expects quiet days beneath the live oaks and long walks in the salt-heavy air of the Georgia coast. Instead, she finds herself drawn into a mystery rooted deep in Savannah's past.
When a young woman disappears near the marsh, whispers begin to spread through the city's manicured squares and old-money parlors. As Kate and Detective John Mitchell search for answers, they uncover a tangled web of hidden loyalties, long-buried betrayals, and secrets powerful enough to destroy lives. The deeper they venture into the marshlands surrounding Wormsloe, the clearer it becomes that someone is willing to protect those secrets at any cost.
In Savannah, the past doesn't stay buried.
It waits for the right moment to rise.
