Overview
In a small Nova Scotia town, some secrets are worth killing for.
When journalist Adam Hartley stumbles upon a stranger's body in a dark Baddeck alley, he thinks he's finally found the story of a lifetime. But the victim's connection to Catherine Pemberton, the town's beloved schoolteacher, unravels a web of secrets that threatens to destroy everything and everyone he cares about.
Catherine's carefully constructed life seems perfect: a devoted husband, respected position, a fresh start in a quiet town. But when Adam discovers a photograph linking her to the victim and a criminal past in Toronto, the truth begins to surface. Catherine was once Catherine Blackwood, entangled in a theft, a murder, and a vendetta that should have stayed buried eleven years ago.
As Adam investigates, he's forced to choose between the journalist's sacred duty to expose the truth and the human need to protect those we love. When Catherine's jealous husband confesses to murder and her vengeful brother emerges from the shadows, Adam realizes the real danger is only just beginning and that some truths demand far more than words.
A haunting 1920s mystery about redemption, loyalty, and the price of truth.
