When Juno's marriage implodes, an unexpected inheritance offers her a way out: a crumbling inn perched high on a Cornish cliff, left to her by a great-aunt she never knew. Hoping to give her children a fresh start, Juno swaps city life for windswept coastal walks and salty sea air...
...only to find that the Cross Keys Inn is steeped in secrets. Locals talk of pirates, and a mysterious ghost ship connected to the chilling tale of Bess Trevelyn, murdered at the inn two centuries before. Meeting the handsome but cold landowner Will Penhelion, a descendant of poor Bess's husband, Juno realises the past and present are entwined in ways she never imagined.
Drawn into the legend of doomed lovers and her own tangled family history, Juno must decide whether the inn at Penglas Cove is her escape or her undoing. For in a house where love and betrayal echo across generations, some promises refuse to die...
