A Letter That Changes Everything
Imagine discovering a letter from your spouse marked "to be opened only in the event of my death." What would you do? This is the impossible situation facing Cecilia Fitzpatrick, whose seemingly perfect life is about to unravel. In a quiet Sydney suburb, Cecilia's discovery will connect three women who've never met and force each to confront devastating moral choices about justice, forgiveness, and protecting those they love. Like Pandora opening her mythical jar, some secrets can never be contained once released. What happens when the person you thought you knew best has been hiding something unimaginable? And more importantly, once you know the truth, can you ever go back?
