Synopsis

A forbidden room. A hidden journal. A legacy of lies.Catherine Finch’s life shatters with the sudden death of her father.  Left alone with his secrets, she discovers a forbidden key that unlocks not only his study but a chilling obsession: the disappearance of his first wife, Eleanor Vance.  The prime suspect? Catherine’s own mother.Haunted by her father’s accusations, Catherine unearths a trove of hidden letters, cryptic postcards, and aged photographs, each a breadcrumb in a trail of deceit.  Driven to reconcile the image of her mother with the woman depicted in the journal, Catherine journeys to the remote, windswept cliffs of Monhegan Island, Maine, where Eleanor was last seen.  The island, a haven for artists, whispers of Eleanor's vanishing, a scar on its collective memory.Catherine’s search for answers draws her into a clandestine world of art forgery, where rivalry and ambition intertwine with dark secrets.  Her every move is shadowed by unsettling events: strange clicks on the phone, malfunctioning brakes, an anonymous package containing a chilling replica of Eleanor's favorite necklace.  Someone wants her to stop digging.In the midst of her isolation, she finds an unlikely ally in Jason Rich, a local journalist haunted by his own family’s unsolved tragedy. Together, they navigate a treacherous web of hidden identities and meticulously crafted lies, unearthing a truth far more twisted than they could have imagined.  Catherine isn't just unraveling a cold case; she’s confronting a dark inheritance that threatens to consume her.As she edges closer to the truth, a terrifying possibility emerges: her own existence might be the ultimate deception.  The locked study becomes her battleground, a claustrophobic stage for a final, devastating confrontation. What began as a search for answers becomes a desperate fight for survival, where the lines between truth and lies blur, and the price of uncovering the past could be everything.

But tranquility turns to terror when a high-profile investor—famous for his cutthroat business tactics—is found dead in the salt cave therapy room. The cause: a lethal dose of a rare essential oil mixed into his personalized aromatherapy blend. The prime suspect is the spa's head aromatherapist and owner, Chloe Sage, who very publicly threatened the investor after he tried to force her out of business.

With help from her intuitive poodle, Zen, and a charming naturopath with a hidden agenda, Chloe uncovers a list of suspects who all visited the spa that day. From blackmail and corporate espionage to secret identities and a past tragedy someone will kill to keep buried, the peaceful facade of Serenity Springs hides deeply troubled waters. Can Chloe find the killer before the grand opening becomes a permanent closing?
