While the family waits in the horror of finding out if it's Vera, Felicity Portman clings to hope that her missing teenage daughter is still alive. Despite all odds, Felicity senses a link between the decades-apart cases--a mother feels such things in her bones. But all suspicion points to the last person who saw Vera alive: Felicity's sister-in-law, Marin. <p/>Marin, with her troubled past.<br>Marin, the poor woman who married into the rich family. <br>Marin, the only one who knows Felicity's darkest secret. <p/>As Felicity makes a shocking discovery in Vera's journal, she questions who her daughter really is.
