When eighteen-year-old Eleanor Avelmont returns to her family's ancestral estate after a year away, she expects to find the place she has always called home. Instead, she finds a house full of strangers. The servants have changed. The halls she once knew feel unfamiliar. Portraits have been moved, rooms have been renovated, and everyone seems strangely careful around her, as though they are afraid of reminding her of something she cannot quite remember. All Eleanor knows is that a year ago, she survived an accident that left her with fractured memories and a life she barely recognizes. Her parents refuse to speak about what happened, insisting that some memories are better left buried. But Avelmont Estate has never been good at keeping secrets.
