A crime committed in desperation is brought to light generations later, in this emotional saga of family love, loyalty, and lies . . .

When Honey McCarthy is given a box containing trinkets left to her by her beloved great-aunty Beryl, she has no idea that hidden inside is a confession to a terrible crime dating back to a cold December night in 1940, when German bombs rained down on Manchester.

Beryl has been the guardian of this dark secret for twenty years. Now it is Honey’s responsibility, and she has a difficult choice to make. If the truth is revealed, it will tear her precious family apart. Should she admit the truth, knowing the pain and devastation it will cause, or is it better to hide her family’s skeletons back in the box where she found them?

A chance meeting with handsome stranger Levi provides a distraction, and Honey finds herself confiding in him and accepting his offer to help. Levi has his own complicated history and their search for answers soon leads them down a path of discovery neither of them could have imagined.

Will one dark secret stay buried or will it change their lives forever?<
