Publisher's summary

From modern-day Roanoke Island to the sweeping backdrop of North Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains and Roosevelt's WPA folklore writers, past and present intertwine to create an unexpected destiny.

Restaurant owner Whitney Monroe is desperate to save her business from a hostile takeover. The inheritance of a decaying Gilded Age hotel on North Carolina's Outer Banks may provide just the ray of hope she needs. But things at the Excelsior are more complicated than they seem. Whitney's estranged stepfather is entrenched on the third floor, and the downstairs tenants are determined to save the historic building. Searching through years of stored family heirlooms may be Whitney's only hope of quick cash, but will the discovery of an old necklace and a Depression-era love story change everything?

Neat subject, voice drive me nuts

I really enjoyed the entire series set on the Outer Banks. I just could not get into the narrators voice-much too old & serious/uptight for a 38 year old. I’m 40 & if I sounded like that-yikes! I’m feel the book would have been much better with one of the other narrators of the other books.

Excellent story of the Melungeon people

Great story about a lost group of people who were treated by the white supremacy of the south. Narrator’s ability to do all the voices in her southern drawl is perfect for this story.

An excellent Book

I found the book interesting. Set in the modern day and back in the 1930s. A story that takes you from Michigan to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, then to the Appalachian Mountains. The vivid description of the Mountains during the Great Depression and the modernization of the Outer Banks. This is the second book by the author I have read, and enjoyed all of it.
