A LONG-HELD FAMILY SECRET THREATENS TO TAKE THE LIFE OF AN UNSUSPECTING HEIRESS IN THE BREATHTAKING NEW THRILLER FROM WORLDWIDE BESTSELLING AUTHOR MARY HIGGINS CLARK
At age eighty-two and in failing health, Olivia Morrow faces a momentous choice: expose a devastating family secret, or take it to her grave. Olivia has in her possession letters from her deceased cousin Catherine, a nun now being considered for beatification by the Catholic Church. The letters are evidence that Catherine gave birth at age seventeen to a son she gave up for adoption. The young man who fathered Catherine's child, Alex Gannon, went on to become a world - famous doctor and scientist. Now, thirty - one - year - old pediatrician Dr. Monica Farrell, their granddaughter, stands as the rightful heir to what remains of Gannon's fortune. But to silence Olivia and prevent Monica from learning the secret, those who are exploiting the inheritance will stop at nothing - even murder.
