When journalist Maya Carter returns to the sleepy town of Rosehill after her aunt's unexpected death, she inherits more than just a crumbling Victorian house-she inherits a mystery steeped in silence, secrets, and fear.
Eleanor Carter wasn't just eccentric. She was obsessed-with the decades-old disappearance of a girl named Lila Carver and the shadowy power of the Hawthorne family. Now, with only Eleanor's cryptic diary as a guide, Maya begins uncovering the truth the town has worked hard to bury.
But Rosehill doesn't welcome curiosity. As Maya digs deeper, she finds herself stalked, threatened, and entangled in a conspiracy reaching back generations. With allies as uncertain as her enemies, and a confession that could shatter everything, Maya must decide: How far will she go to bring the truth into the light?
The Widow is a haunting, slow-burn mystery of buried crimes, generational silence, and a woman brave enough to face the ghosts of the past-before they claim her too.
