By Colleen Coble. The first book in the Mercy Falls Series.

Addie Sullivan has never felt loved by her mother, even after her father's death. Her only true companion is her beloved dog, Gideon. One stormy night, a stranger sheds light on the reason. He claims that she is Julia Eaton and not a Sullivan at all. Under the guise of a new governess, Addie and Gideon go from lighthouse to mansion in a quest to find the truth about her past.

Addie must rely heavily on her faith in God as dark secrets, shocking revelations, and murder follow her to her new home. As her romance with the father of the boy she cares for blossoms, she must choose between their love and her newfound father's wishes.

This is a fast paced read with lots of action that makes it a real page turner! This novel is suitable for adults and older teens. It can be found, as well as the rest of the Mercy Falls series, at our North campus location or checked out online to be picked up at either campus.
