"After surviving a nightmarish childhood, Anneliese Bakker is on the mend and searching for her birth mother. But when she meets Willem, she falls madly in love and finally finds a safe place to land. Engaged and expecting her first child, she moves into the Veldkamp mansion on a stately, tree-lined avenue in Amsterdam. And yet, nothing about Willem's family is as it seems. Instead of the loving home she has longed for her entire life, she's confronted with a cold and hostile household. Increasingly isolated, Anneliese is drawn to a creepy basement shrine to Louisa, Willem s mother. Louisa Veldkamp was a legendary Dutch pianist who presumably drowned-but whose body has never been found. Though still revered by her fans, Louisa is a taboo subject in the family home. Haunted by her own demons, Anneliese must dig into the family's past to untangle a dark web of secrets, inadvertently putting herself and her unborn child in grave danger."--
