July 1896, Brockton, Mass.

When the body of Deirdre, adopted granddaughter of Jane Corcoran, is discovered in Union Cemetery, whispers ripple through the streets. Was it the work of someone from Brockton's shadowy underworld — or a member of its polished, powerful elite?

In an era when justice bends toward wealth and men, a new sisterhood of survivors rises from the ashes of grief. They know better than to trust the law — or the men who claim to uphold it. Each woman carries a secret she once vowed to carry to the grave. But when shared, those secrets become a weapon.

Together these women — once broken, now bound by courage — vow to unmask a killer, expose the hypocrisy of Brockton's finest, and take a daring step toward true freedom for women.
