But an age-old secret lies hidden within its walls--the key to a mystery that will forever change the lives of those who abide there. Charles Rutherford, The Duke of Heathersleigh.

Their fiercely independent and rebellious daughter, who rejects her parents' growing faith and the changes it brings. She strikes out on her own, determined to make her mark on the world at any cost. While the shadow of war threatens England's peaceful slumber, the family's long-kept mystery begins to unravel. Who will be the first to discover THE SECRETS OF HEATHERSLEIGH HALL?
