Beauty, like truth, is enduring. But only one
can set you free.
Maggie Black came of age in the lush, fragrant lowcountry
of South Carolina-spending her days with her beloved brother and the
boy she would grow up to marry. But when a stranger arrived one summer,
Maggie couldn't imagine the evil he would bring with him. And though
she escaped with her life, the ramifications of that fateful summer
would alter all of their lives forever.
Now, some eighty years later, Maggie and her husband
George are spending their remaining days in a nursing home, helpless
as age slowly robs Maggie of her ability to communicate. When a mysterious
package arrives, followed closely by a stranger whose identity haunts
them, Maggie and George are hemmed in by a history they'd rather forget.
As the truth reveals itself, George knows he must face
the past and its lifetime of repercussions. It's the only way to free
himself and his precious wife-if it's not too late.
THE INHERITANCE OF BEAUTY is a rich and enchanting story
about age and beauty, about the blessings and curses of each, and
how true beauty endures for a lifetime.
