'What would you do if you had the chance to change a pivotal moment from your past?

'How far would you go to save someone you loved?

'These are just two of the fateful choices a woman must face in this highly original and hauntingly evocative detective story of love and loss.

'At the core of the enigmatic Stella’s story, past and present, is a mystery she is compelled to solve, a beautiful young woman who went missing fifty years ago – and a tragedy much closer to home she must try to prevent.

'As Stella unravels the dark secrets of her family's past and her own, it becomes clear that everyone remembers the past differently and the small choices we make every day can change our future irrevocably.'
