When pregnant Saffi Cutler and her husband Tom inherited house number 9 on Skelton Place, they thought it was the house of their dreams. And certainly the last thing they expected was to find human remains buried in the garden in the backyard. More precisely, the remains of two bodies. A man and a woman… The forensic examination showed that the bodies had been buried for at least thirty years, and… it’s murder. The police ask Saffi to talk to the former owner of the cottage – her grandmother Rose, who lives in a nursing home… The only problem is that Rose has Alzheimer's disease. Her mind is slowly fading, she remembers almost nothing and cannot help the police. And yet the old lady clearly knows something… As fragments of Rose's memories surface and the police dig deeper, Saffi realizes that someone is watching her and her house. Someone very dangerous… What happened thirty years ago? Who are these victims? What role did Rose play in this case? And what danger threatens Saffi now? A book about a mystery lurking in the past, forbidden love, and boundless maternal care. After reading, you will definitely want to call your parents and ask them about the past – maybe there are untold adventures hidden there too…
