Some secrets are better off forgotten...
After surviving the devastation of the Great Chicago Fire, Mary Hawkins awakens to a world she no longer recognizes. Her memories are lost, stolen by the flames that engulfed her past. However, her confusion deepens when a mysterious mountain man claims to be her uncle, taking her on a journey to a secluded mining village in the wild Colorado frontier.
As Mary struggles to piece together her shattered identity, her uncle remains silent, withholding answers about her past. But as time goes by, she is tormented by vivid nightmares, shadows taunting and afflicting her, making her wonder if they are either dreams or memories.
When the opportunity arises for Mary to reclaim her place in Chicago society, she is torn between her desire for answers and the comfort of her newfound home-and the boy she has come to deeply care for. But as she delves deeper into the shadows of her past, she uncovers buried secrets, leading her to realize that the truth may be more sinister-and far more dangerous-than she ever imagined.
The Coal Miner's Niece combines the two aesthetics-the Rocky Mountains and Gilded Age Chicago. Get ready to take an unforgettable journey and experience two worlds full of mystery, secrets, action, suspense, romance, and self-discovery.
