This is a love story that begins in 1834, on the West Indian island of Trinidad. A young boy is saved by a slave, from a burning plantation house that was deliberately set ablaze. The story connects a brothel to US troops on their way to the continent during the Second World War. The island was the home for three American bases because of its strategically important position to the South America trade routes and the valuable oil fields in the south of the country. US serviceman, Robert, falls in love with a young prostitute, Anna, and together they begin to discover their distant backgrounds are intertwined. The spirit world, through their love, will heal a horrific past. In 1994 Robert's grandson, Peter, living in the US, experiences a deep spiritual call from his grandfather who disappeared in Trinidad 1944. The continuous nightmare of a burning plantation house haunt him and Peter believes these are connected to his grandfather's disappearance. This is made somewhat evident with the contents of an old, rusty tin box he finds in the attic including his grandfather's army dog tags and a black and white photograph of a beautiful woman. On the back of the photograph is written the name Anna. Peter travels to Trinidad, finding the now aged Anna who slowly unravels the story that begins and ends in a graveyard behind a narrow street. This story reveals a simple truth: the present cannot be fulfilled until the past has been healed.

I never questioned the life I was living. A rising ballerina. A penthouse overlooking New York. A powerful, wealthy father, and Kayce. My brother, my best friend. It started with a stranger in the shadows. A man who watched me from across the street, vanishing the moment I looked his way. Something about him felt familiar, like fate pulling us together. And then the cracks began to show. A masquerade ball cloaked in secrets. Whispers of betrayal. My brother's sudden disappearance, and the devastating truth that shattered everything I thought I knew. Now, nothing was safe. Not my family. Not the world I trusted. Not even my heart. There were secrets buried beneath the glittering surface of my life. And that mysterious man in the shadows? He may be the only one who could help me uncover the truth, even if trusting him changed everything. In a world ruled by Blood and Honor, trust is the deadliest choice of all.
