With love and loss tangled together, how was she to know where her life would lead?
Allie Kirkland has always heard the call of her fatherâs unfinished destiny. When sheâs offered a production assistantâs job on a docudrama filming in the hills near Moses Lake, Texas, the dream of following in her directorâfatherâs footsteps suddenly seems within reach. The reenactment of the legendary frontier settlement of Wildwood is a first step into the film industry. A summer on set in the wilderness is a small price to pay for a dream.
But in 1861, the real Wildwood held dangerous realities. Town founder Harland Delavan held helpless residents, including young Irish schoolteacher Bonnie Rose, in an iron grip. Mysterious disappearances led to myths and legends still retold in the regionâs folk songs. Eventually, the entire site was found abandoned.
When filming begins, strange connections surface between Allie and the teacher who disappeared over a century ago, and everyone in Wildwoodâincluding Blake Fulton, Allieâs handsome neighbor on the film setâseems to be hiding secrets.
Allie doesnât know whom she can trust. If she canât find the answers in time, history may repeat itself ⊠with the most unthinkable results.
