Secrets and Surrender

by Jan Hemby

It’s been three years since Julia Burch received a mysterious phone call that led to the rescue of her childhood friend, Margaret Gates, from the brink of suicide. But not everyone is happy with Margaret’s survival or her newfound success and happiness. Someone has been waiting for the perfect time to exact their revenge, and that time has finally come. In order to catch the perpetrator, Julia and Margaret must make it appear as if the sinister plan is succeeding. But how far do they let it go? As Margaret becomes entangled in a web of lies, greed, and family secrets, will she be able to hold on to her faith and trust that something good could come from the chaos? In this suspense-filled sequel to The Gates Manor Band, no one—and nothing—is as it seems.
