Jack Dolan comes to White Mountain to discover where Frank, who was murdered in New York came from. Frank's fingerprints did not match his name, so who is Frank and why was he killed? Jack discovers the owner of the inn, where Frank lived is Isabella who looks just like portrait of her mother which hangs in the inn.

Typical Sharon Sala/Dinah McCall fare. Fast paced.

- Dedication
- The miracle of life is just that--a miracle. From the hour of our birth to the moment we draw our last breath, we are living. Some of us are better at it than others, but it is the only chance we are given.
Each ... (show all)life is unique to that person. All the thought all the emotions, all the failures and successes, can be shared to a degree, but it is impossible to share a soul. When it is gone the shell that it inhabited is cast aside, as worthless as a box in which a jewel is carried.
Because I believe that we are only given one life, one time, I chose to dedicate this book to my loved ones who have already left this earth for a better place, and especially my sister, Diane, who passing cost me so many tears.
Save me a place beside you, honey.
I miss you more than words can say. - First words
- Frank Walton was dying.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)He already knows.
