Eden Riley was a young child when her mother, Katherine Swift, a renowned children's book author, died. Her memories of her mother are vague. Now, as an
Oscar award winning actress, Eden decides to make a film about her mother's life. She returns to her mother's childhood home, Lynch Hollow, where she discovers
more than she bargained for.
Her uncle Kyle presents her with the journals her mother had kept. Powerfully written, these journals reveal Kyle and Katherine's life together. As Katherine
grew into a young woman, her fear of other people and of being separated from her home leave her isolated, with Kyle as her only link to the outside world.
After Katherine's death, Kyle and his wife raised Eden, whose rebellious adolescence tested the boundaries of their love for her. A painful price is paid
for her rebellion, and she fled from Kyle's home at her first opportunity. Now she's come home and must come to terms with Kyle and the terrible secret
she's been keeping.
