How could she say no? Gwen Carter, teacher of interpretive dance, has no training in behavior disorders. Yet her friend begs Gwen to help her traumatized twelve-year-old great-granddaughter Amy. Mute and nearly catatonic after the death of her mother, Amy will have nothing to do with her businessman father, Barris Reinhart. Barris, having lost not only his wife but his daughter, seeks solace in whiskey, as his questions over what caused his wife's death mount up. An accident? Suicide? Or is it murder? The Sheriff investigates but has no evidence. No body, only a part of a torn nightgown clings to the rocks beneath the cliff and a slipper washes ashore. Staying in a cabin on Barris's palatial coastal estate, Eagles Rest, Gwen must trust God to show her how to bring Amy out of her trauma. Barris is attracted to Gwen, but will she return his growing affection? Or stay committed to the man she loves who has yet to fully commit to her. Gwen is on her own as she tiptoes around the personal agendas of employees, a psychiatrist, and Amy's Aunt and Uncle who teach reincarnation and past-life regression in a new-age business. When she rules out suicide Gwen must find a killer before the killer strikes again. Will she or Amy be the next victim? Dark secrets are revealed and the list of suspects grows, including Amy's grieving father. Who can Gwen trust? No one but God whom she believes called her to Eagles Rest to rescue a helpless child.
