A tale of family secrets, haunting legacies and mysteries that bind generations. Alone after the death of her mother, Holly's precarious world is upended by a mysterious letter. She'd given up her job and a failing relationship to care for her mother in her final days. But now her mother is gone, her antique business is bankrupt, and the bank has repossessed the shop and with it, Holly's childhood home. It had always been just the two of them. Holly's father was a rolling stone, never part of her life - except for the one time, when she was very young, that he took her to visit her grandfather at Elk Horn Lodge. Now the letter from her grandfather's lawyers summoning her to the reading of his will jogs foggy memories of the long ago trip with her father to Vancouver Island. With few other options and a few dollars in her pocket, Holly loads up Stan the Van, her only inheritance, and hits the road. It could be an adventure! Surely her grandfather left her something or she wouldn't have been called to attend. Alone in the world, she clings to the hope of finding more family. Be careful what you wish for! Her grandfather has left her a rambling Victorian hunting lodge, a quirky time-capsule of its heyday sixty years ago when it was the fly-in retreat of Hollywood's elite. And yes, there is family, but her local family is convinced the lodge should belong to them, and are prepared to do anything to get it. And who is the sister also mentioned in the will? In order to claim her inheritance, Holly has only three months to find her. The mysterious Anastasia holds the key to Holly's - no, both of their - future. >Elk Horn Lodge is a relic, a tapestry of family mysteries, inexplicably interwoven with tarnished whispers of Hollywood's Golden Age. But the clock is ticking. Holly has three months to find her sister - or lose the only remaining link to her past. Comments from Amazon readers: "I'm already on chapter six and I can't put it down!" "This book is easy to read, heartwarming and a mystery in one. Loved it!" A note from the author - Welcome to Elk Horn Lodge.This book was so much fun to write. A family mystery set in a crumbling old mansion in the wilds of the west coast of Vancouver Island, which happens to be where I live. >Judy Hudson www.JudithHudsonAuthor.com
