Product Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts weaves together passion and obsession, humor and heart, in a novel of two people opening themselves up to the truth-and to each other.
For more than three hundred years, Bluff House has sat above Whiskey Beach, guarding its shore-and its secrets. But to Eli Landon, it's home.
A Boston lawyer, Eli has weathered an intense year of public scrutiny and police investigations after being accused of-but never arrested for-the murder of his soon-to-be ex-wife.
He finds sanctuary at Bluff House, even though his beloved grandmother is in Boston recuperating from a nasty fall. Abra Walsh is always there, though. Whiskey Beach's resident housekeeper, yoga instructor, jewelry maker and massage therapist, Abra is a woman of many talents-including helping Eli take control of his life and clear his name. But as they become entangled in each other, they find themselves caught in a net that stretches back for centuries-one that has ensnared a man intent on reaping the rewards of destroying Eli Landon once and for all.
