While cleaning in the library of Grey Gables, Annie Dawson comes across a music box, left to her as the crowning piece of a collection her grandmother had assembled. Beautifully carved, it is the only box in the collection that won’t play. Where did her grandmother get the box, and why had it never been repaired? These questions will haunt Annie and will lead her down one of the most painful — and yet one of the most romantic — journeys she has taken during the time she has spent sorting out the mysteries hidden within the walls of Grey Gables.
