Daughter of the Stars

by Phyllis A. Whitney

Lacey, a woman who seems to have it all--talent, good looks, and a successful business--is missing a family. For 30 years, her mother has refused to discuss Lacey's absent father or their missing relatives. It is not until her mother is struggling with a life-threatening illness and a letter arrives from someone who claims to be her aunt that Lacey's chance comes. This piece of correspondence enables Lacey to learn about her mother's family, her father's death, and about the killer whom her aunt believes may return. Encouraged by these discoveries, Lacey seeks answers in Harpers Ferry where she uncovers who she really is, and why her past has been hidden for so long.

Publisher Notes

"Were they all lying? Misleading me for their own purposes?..."
Lacey Elliot has been a woman without a past since the day her mother whisked her off to Charlottesville, refusing for thirty years to speak of her father, her family, or her history.
But when Lacey intercepts a desperate letter from an aunt in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, Lacey sees her chance to confront the past that has terrified her mother and to fill in the gaps in her own life.
Against the charm and colorful, turbulent history of the picturesque town, the violent history of Lacey's heritage is about to repeat itself. As she finds herself drawn to a man intrigued by the town for reasons of his own, old ghosts reappear and danger returns--as a killer walks among them once more....
"Evocative, moving, suspenseful--another surefire winner from the writer who taught all of us how it should be done."
--BARBARA MICHAELS
