There's a place for the girls whom no one wants--the troublemakers, the illegitimate, the ones too smart for their own good.

When Fiona discovers that Idlewild Hall is being restored by an anonymous benefactor, she decides to write a story about it. But a shocking discovery during renovations links the loss of her sister to secrets that were meant to stay hidden in the past--and a voice that won't be silenced....
