An instant USA Today bestseller.
A woman in search of a new beginning is put to the test in ways she never imagined in an empowering and provocative page-turner by the author of Not That I Could Tell.
Katieâs divorce was, in a word, humiliating. So when her friend Bess offers a fresh startâa resident caretaking job at a nature preserveâKatie accepts. No matter that sheâs not exactly a ânature person.â How hard can it be?
But from day one, something feels off. Katieâs new farmhouse looks as if the last caretaker barely moved out at all. When a frantic, terrified woman arrives late at night, expecting a safe place to hide, itâs clear caretaking involves way more than Katie bargained for.
Suddenly, Katie is no longer sure who she can trust: the brooding groundskeeper, the daily regularsâhikers, dog walkers, bird-watchers, photographersâeven Bess.
As Katie digs deeper for clues in what the last caretaker left behind, she must discover courage she never knew she hadâand decide how much sheâll risk to do the right thing.
