The Silver Ring

Cornwall, 1939. The wealthy silversmiths, the Cossentines, are poisoned at dinner: only the youngest son and daughter survive. Maurice inherits everything. Celeste, with a history of psychosis, flees, taking with her a unique silver ring and assuming a new identity. She trains as a nurse but lives in fear of being recognised. When a wounded soldier captures her heart, she yearns to confess. But dare she trust even Danny with her secret?

Present Day. After the silver ring comes up for auction in New York, sparking a hunt for the long-lost heir to the Cossentine estate, violinist Stella begins to decipher her late grandmother's coded journals. Shocked to discover her true identity, she travels to Cornwall in the hope of proving her bloodline. But not everyone is happy to see her and Stella soon suspects she's being watched... Is her own life in danger?
