Author Molly Hunt, adopted daughter of Long Island parents, is stunned when she meets a handsome man who tells her he is about to marry her twin sister. Molly soon discovers she is the long-lost child of a wealthy family in South Carolina. Eager to solve the puzzle of her birth, she journeys to the historic family plantation. There she meets her beautiful twin, their reclusive mother, and a cast of intriguing characters. Her arrival sets in motion a series of strange and frightening events, and in the intoxicating, magnolia-scented world of Molly's original family, haunting memories of an unsolved murder threaten the family's very existence—as well as her own.
