On Moreton Waters

A love triangle, a mysterious death, a family torn apart .... Willa McPhee's family history research has just thrown up a murdered great-aunt. Obsessed with finding the truth, she flees troubled relationships at home and travels to Ochiltree, a village frozen in time where she is drawn into the mystery of the powerful Hinchbrook and Henzell families. With the help of the town's eccentric senior citizens, and the dark and brooding Louis, Willa uncovers the tragedies that lead to the families' disintegration one hundred years earlier. But will her preoccupation with the past blind her to the possibilities of a new life and love in the present? And now that she has unearthed her family's shameful secrets, will she reveal them, or leave them buried?
