The year is 1928. Kate
Moore is looking for a way out of the poverty and violence of her
childhood. When a chance encounter on a transatlantic ocean liner brings
her face-to-face with the handsome heir to a Chicago fortune, she
thinks she may have found her escape—as long as she can keep her past
concealed.

After exchanging wedding vows, Kate quickly discovers
that something isn’t quite right with her husband—or her new family. As
Mrs. Matthew Lemont, she must contend with her husband’s disturbing
past, his domineering mother, and his overly close sister. Isolated at
Lakecrest, the sprawling, secluded Lemont estate, she searches
desperately for clues to Matthew’s terrors, which she suspects stem from
the mysterious disappearance of his aunt years before. As Kate stumbles
deeper into a maze of family secrets, she begins to question everyone’s
sanity—especially her own. But just how far will she go to break free
of this family’s twisted past?
