Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

At fifty-eight, Susan never expected to come home.But when her late aunt's rundown Victorian in Manitou Springs falls to her - along with a marriage she's just walked away from - she returns to the one town, and the one man, she left behind thirty-four years ago. Richard never left. He never stopped waiting, either, though he'd sooner drown in the Arkansas than say so.Susan means to fix the place up fast and sell. Then she finds her aunt's locked steamer trunk in the attic - and the life she thought she knew starts coming apart at the seams. A wartime photograph. A soldier's dog tags. Forty years of anonymous letters, and a fortune quietly given away without a single thank-you ever asked for or received.The secret Susan uncovers isn't hers to keep - but the longer she sits on it, the more it threatens the one person who deserves the truth most.Set against the red rock and river towns of Colorado, Manitou is a story about the debts love leaves behind, the quiet ways devotion outlasts a lifetime, and what it costs - and gives back - to finally stop being careful.
