But some secrets can’t stay buried forever

By: LES DALE

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Two young adults, both in their twenties and financially stable, meet by chance in the Lake District. They are drawn together by a love of photography and fell walking. One, a determined young woman, has made the bold decision to become a single mother on her own terms. The other, a restless young man, is grasping at a final taste of freedom, before resigning himself to the burden of joining the family business that holds little or no interest for him.
For one brief moment, their paths align. No commitments, no expectations, just a silent agreement. But fate isn’t finished with them yet. Nineteen years later, when their lives have moved in different directions, by chance, they meet again. Is there something unfinished that now lies between them?
When a body is found near their former pottery works, James Collins is forced to confront his family’s secret past. As he unravels the mystery of a vanished designer and a long-rumored scandal, old secrets threaten to surface. With his future, and a lost love at stake, James must decide whether the truth is worth the cost.

A gripping mystery of love, legacy, and the weight of silence.
