THE FORBIDDEN PAST
It began as an intriguing challenge for Johanna Wheaton--to solve a celebrated century-old mystery involving greed, adultery, and murder, and to collect the stunning reward offered by a dead man's bizarre will.
But modern Manhattan was far different from the New York of 1874, and there were those who did not wish long-buried truths to be unearthed.
In a novel that begins amid the ruthless passions of elegant nineteenth-century New York and ends in the perilous present, a determined young woman discovers that her future happiness is bound up in the puzzle of a long-dead woman whose impeccable reputation concealed a life full of secrets.
