The award-winning author of The Haunting of Maddy Clare returns with a suspenseful book...
1950s in Vermont. The females that no one wants—the troublemakers, the illegitimate, the too intelligent for their own good—have a home. We refer to it as Idlewild Hall. Additionally, there are rumours that the boarding school is haunted in the little hamlet where it is situated. Four roommates get close via sharing their silent anxieties, and their relationship grows until one of them vanishes for no apparent reason.
2014; Vermont. Journalist Fiona Sheridan has tried, but she just can't seem to get over the circumstances leading up to the murder of her elder sister. Her corpse was discovered in the overgrown pastures next to the Idlewild Hall remains twenty years ago. Even after her sister's lover was found guilty of murder after a trial, Fiona can't get rid of the feeling that something about the case was wrong.
Fiona chooses to write a piece about Idlewild Hall after learning that it is being renovated by an unidentified donor. However, a startling finding made while renovating will connect her sister's passing to long-forgotten truths and a voice that will not go unheard.
