The Second Mrs. Hale
by thesecondmrsSynopsis
The Hale dynasty destroyed my family and called it justice. My father died in a cell for a theft he did not commit. My mother walked into the estuary. So I changed my name, changed my face, and made the heir to the Hale fortune fall in love with a woman who does not exist. Now I am the second Mrs. Hale, and I sleep in the house that ruined me, and I am going to take it apart one secret at a time. They think I married into the family. I married into the wound. But Caradon keeps its own secrets, and the first Mrs. Hale died here, and the more I dig the less my father looks like an innocent man and the more my husband looks like the only Hale with clean hands. I came to ruin them. I am starting to be afraid I came to find the truth. I was never who I claimed to be. I am no longer certain there is anyone underneath.
