When We Were Young

By Mark McCord

Ilse Bekker, the famed Mozart's Ghost, is dead, leaving David Payne and Katya Varanova to manage her vast financial empire and protect her legacy. In doing so, their lives intertwine, leading them into a confusing and dangerous relationship. As the years pass, their grief transforms into an unwavering resolve to portray Ilse as she wanted to be instead of how she was. Even in death, Ilse's hold on David and Katya, as well as their friends Audrey Kotite and Bryce Nelson, is profound. They remain spiders caught in her web, which leads them to make choices that have life-altering implications.

As they deal with Ilse's past, David and Katya come face-to-face with her old enemies, which creates devastating consequences. As such, they develop a bond that is unbreakable. Can David and Katya balance Ilse's legacy with their emerging feelings for each other or will Mozart's Ghost destroy any chance they have for happiness?

Set in some of the most iconic cities in the world, When We Were Young, continues the story of hope, redemption, and lasting love that began with Mozart's Ghost. In doing so, it punctuates the dichotomy between duty and honor, mercy and revenge, and loyalty and betrayal.
