When Petula Kerslake returns to her childhood home in the Catskill Mountains, she discovers that the family painting hanging above the library mantel—long suspected to be valuable—is actually worth twenty million dollars. But the Fleming Foundation, which inherited the historic mansion and its contents, immediately moves to auction off the Sarah Cole masterpiece.
Determined to keep the painting in the family and community where it belongs, Petula and her siblings must navigate a web of family secrets, legal battles, and small-town politics. Her brother Chad has been managing the estate and his actions raise suspicions, and her younger brother Tripp is implicated in his ex-girlfriend's mysterious death on the frozen lake. As the siblings fight to reclaim their heritage, they uncover shocking truths about their family's past and the painting's true history.
