Jane thrives in the one place where she can hide her pain and keep her skeletons to herself. As principal costumier at Auckland’s Opera House in its Edwardian heyday, she is content – until the past comes back to haunt her.

Her beloved foster mother Brigid and her best friend Gwenna are anchors in her solitary yet rewarding life. When the burden of carrying secrets becomes too great, Jane surrenders her role as keeper of the untold.

Generations later Katie seeks refuge from her crumbling life with her Granna, who lives in the past with the people in her cherished photographs. Katie discovers she must identify the people behind the gentle smiles and reveal generations of secrets before she can claim her inheritance.

Through Jared, an intriguing new client, Katie revives her stalled career until she learns he holds the key to uncovering her past. Despite an increasing attraction, she shies away from any deeper involvement ... but without him she will never know the truth.
