SummaryWas it a place of safety...or deadly danger?
Nestled in the Colorado Rockies, the Wainscott Ranch is a
place of hope and promise for expectant mothers from
war-torn regions of the globe. Here, women with nowhere to
go, and no one to help them, find refuge. Though raised in a
life of privilege, Marisa Joubert, too, has escaped a
terrible fate and understands the fear of being alone,
penniless and frightened. Determined to start over and
support her young son alone, she lands a position at
Wainscott as a bookkeeper. Yet almost immediately she senses
that something there is very wrong.
When one of the young women disappears, Marisa's suspicions
escalate. Especially about Jimmy, the janitor, who may not
be as innocent as he pretends to be. He is a man who could
be friend or enemy, a man who could be searching for
answers...or desperately trying to cover them up. Marisa
knows he's somehow involved in the mysterious events at
Wainscott. But which side is he on?
