Once Imogen and her partner Josh settle into the house, she dares to hope that this is the start of a new life.Yet Imogen can't stop wondering why a woman she barely knew would leave her everything.
And when she discovers a box with her name on it in the artist's abandoned studio, she's sure Dorothea was trying to send her a message before she died.

What if her death wasn't an accident?
Could it be tangled in Imogen's own dark family history?
And why is she feeling watched all of a sudden?
