She never knew her father's name. Now she owns a quarter of his empire, and his other children want her gone.
When furniture restorer Wren Calloway gets a call from a lawyer she's never heard of, she expects a wrong number, not the discovery that a dying stranger named Augustus Blackwood was her father, and that he's left her an equal share of Blackwood Estate. The only problem: Augustus already has three children who never knew she existed, and none of them are ready to share.
Forced into a six month residency requirement before the will can be settled, Wren moves into a house full of siblings who see her as a threat, a housekeeper who watches her every move, and a locked room that no one will explain. With the help of a local historian who knows the estate's history better than the family does, Wren begins pulling at a thread that leads back sixty years, to a land fraud, a buried threat against her own mother, and a fire someone is willing to start to keep it all quiet.
As accusations fly and the family fractures further, Wren has to decide how far she'll go to claim a place in a family that never wanted her, and whether the truth is worth the fallout it's about to cause.
