After many years of hard work as a nurse, Rita Goodwin can finally relax and enjoy her retirement in her adopted country of Canada. One fateful day, she decides to catch up on the news from her home country via the BBC; however, the news from Britain is not a comfort. The skeleton of an American soldier, dating back to World War II, had been discovered in an unused sand quarry- located directly behind Rita's childhood home.Rita knows of this skeleton, and she is horrified to hear of the mysterious details reported by the BBC. She knows they're off track. Their confusion is calming, and yet her guilt is too much. She soon finds herself on a plane to England, where she may have to confront ghosts long hidden in her childhood memories-memories that made her leave her home country and flee to Canada years before.Upon her arrival in Britain, her small hometown is in chaos over the discovery of the remains. She is shocked to realize her childhood sweetheart-and current police inspector-Ernest, is in charge of the investigation. Will the skeletons in Rita's mental closet come out to haunt her? Will she rekindle long-ago feelings for dear Ernest? Or will her secrets prove her guilt in this thrilling tale of murder, regret, and love?
