Description

After the deaths of her remaining relatives, Hetty Deveraux retreats from her troubled marriage to the remote Scottish island estate she has inherited, intending to restore it and turn it into a hotel. But when human remains are uncovered beneath the house, her renovation becomes an investigation into a century-old mystery surrounding the estate’s former inhabitants—including Beatrice Blake, the enigmatic wife of a celebrated painter. As Hetty follows a trail of rumors, buried resentments, and fractured loyalties, the past begins to cast an unsettling shadow over her own future. Atmospheric and richly evocative, this tale explores secrets, identity, desire, and the enduring influence of family history.
