Fall has come to Stony Point, Maine. The summer visitors have left. Annie Dawson, a Texas visitor who is staying at Grey Gables, the stately victorian she inherited from her late grandmother, even considers returning to Texas. But when she finds a bundle of letters from a childhood friend from one summer at Grey Gables, she feels a rush of nostalgia for those golden days she spent in Stony Point as a child. At the urging of her grandmother she had befriended Susan Morris, the lonely, pretty girl who lived on the outskirts of town. They played at the beach and spent many hours together with Gram at Grey Gables. Their letters had sustained their friendship through the winter months when Annie had to return home to Texas. It was these letters that Annie had saved and brought back to Grey Gables to share with Susan her last summer in Stony Point. But where is Susan now? It would seem to be a simple task to track her down, or at least find out what happened to her. But mysteries uncovered in the attic of Grey Gables are never simple. When Annie queries her friends in the Hook and Needle Club, a local stitchery group sponsored by the yarn shop, A Stitch in Time, she receives conflicting stories. Is she married? Did she move to Florida? Or to California? She’s certainly not in Stony Point. Disturbing information draws Annie deeper and deeper into Susan’s story, a frightening game of hide and seek with strangers who threaten Annie’s life and endanger the lives of her friends. Follow Annie’s adventure in her quest for the truth about her friend. You’ll have some heart-stopping encounters along the way and be inspired by the ties of true friendship that bind us together.
