Following the death of her husband, Georgia moves in with her son, James and his family. While getting into the new groove of things, her grandson reveals something about a secret chamber in the house. She has to decide if James and Natalie are hiding something, or if her grandson’s imagination is just running wild… When my husband passed away last year, my world turned upside down. Richard and I had been together for over forty years, and suddenly, there was this unbearable void where he used to be.Suddenly, there was an absence that couldn’t leave me. It clung to me. I’d wake up to an empty bed, and the silence would stretch out before me, making the days feel longer and lonelier. So, when my son, James, and his wife, Natalie, invited me to live with them for a while, I wasn’t about to refuse.

“But, it’s your home,” my neighbor and close friend, Elizabeth, said.“I know,” I said, pouring us some tea. “But it’s… the thought of living alone is just too much. I can’t do this. And I think being with the grandkids will be healing.” Elizabeth nodded and smiled. “We’ll miss you at book club, Piper,” she said. James and his family welcomed me with open arms, making me feel like part of their daily life.“Mom, it’s just until you’re ready,” Natalie had told me, when we were unpacking up clothes upstairs in the guest room. “Exactly,” James said from the doorway. “You don’t have to be alone right now. We miss dad, too. But he’s been your life partner for decades, I can’t try to understand that loss.”
