Sinopse

It was no small act of heroism to which the boy made up his mind in those few moments. Those were lawless days, and human life was held very cheap. The band of fierce men who had believed they were carrying off a prince, would think nothing of running him through with their swords when they discovered how they had been tricked, and that by a mere child. Paul set his teeth hard and braced himself up for the task he had set himself. He knew his peril he realized it too; but he was a soldier's son, and had he not said he would live and die for the prince? Would he ever be worthy of the knighthood every lad looked forward to as the goal of his ambition, if he shrank now from the task he had set himself? Hardly had that resolution been taken before there sprang out from the thick underwood two or three fierce-looking men, armed to the teeth.

    Could you trust the sister you’ve never met before? 
    When tragedy brings biological sisters Jessica Williams and Reeve Elliot together, the initial shock of learning of each other’s existence is quickly replaced by a commitment to be there for each other. 
    For Reeve, it’s the support she needs at a time when her life is falling apart – she’s having blackouts and memory loss, exactly what her beloved late mother suffered from just a few years before. 
    For Jess, it’s a chance to find solace in family and move beyond the abandonment and trauma she experienced as a child forced to grow up in the foster care system. 
    As the bond between the two women deepens, their relationship is tested in ways they’d never have imagined. When Jess’s past comes back to haunt her, the nightmare that is Reeve’s present intensifies. 
    With a large inheritance at stake, the lines between greed and family, as well as right and wrong, begin to blur. Someone is lying. Someone is manipulating the truth. But is it one of the sisters? And – as secrets unravel, both sisters will question… who can they truly trust? 
    A powerful, twisty emotional page turner that readers of Jodi Picoult, Amanda Prowse and Emma Robinson will love.
