About this listen
What would you do to keep your family safe?
Widowed genealogist Ellie McLellan has spent years healing her ravished heart by carefully constructing a new and quiet life away from the hungry glare of the paparazzi. She now fills her days with genealogical research for various clients, safe in the small town of Percyville, Quebec.
Until her bid to save a child's life is caught on camera and ambitious tabloid reporter Diane Cooper recognizes her. Turns out Ellie is not safe at all.
With Diane sniffing around for dirt and her "big break" story, Ellie learns a dark family secret with the power to destroy the only family she has left—and the first tentative relationship she's dared to believe in since that fateful day she lost everything.
To protect her family, Ellie must follow every clue and use every skill she possesses in her race to stay ahead of the ruthless Diane and learn the truth about the genealogical mystery she has stumbled upon.
No more hiding. This time, Ellie will fight.
