Leah never knew her father, and a dead-end life in the States gives her little reason to stay when she inherits a beautiful old manor in the English countryside.
She can claim that inheritance only by remaining there, even as the village talks about a family mystery left buried for years.
Rowan, the gruff caretaker, seems to hold the answers she wants about her father, yet he remains stubbornly silent.
Woodland trails, rolling farmland, and the local harvest festival frame her search for why her mother abandoned this life so long ago.
By the fire in the old library, Rowan slowly warms to her, but returning to the manor may push Leah toward a past she is not sure she is ready to face.
