In this haunting family saga, a young woman must delve into her country star mother's music to break a curse that has plagued the women in her family for generations--before her time runs out.
On the morning of Rhea's eighteenth birthday, she makes a shocking discovery--her mother was the famed singer of some of country music's most iconic tunes, the legendary Lulabelle Belle Powers, and she's just inherited her massive estate. Eager to know more about this woman she barely remembers, Rhea travels to Nashville to retrace her mother's footsteps. But as she gets to know Belle's closest friends and learns more of her story, she can't help but think something is being kept from her.
It isn't until years later that her mother's best friend Hess reveals the truth--her mother believed all the women in her family were cursed to die at thirty-three--Belle's exact age when she passed away in a mysterious plane crash. Hess dismisses the curse as pure superstition, but Rhea feels something sinister stalking her, her own life beginning to mirror her mother's as she gets closer to her thirty-third birthday. Desperate for answers, Rhea delves deeper into her mother's music, uncovering Belle's last unpublished album Night Songs, which leads her back to her roots in ways she never could have imagined.
Alternating between Rhea's journey and Lulabelle's untold rise to country queen, Night Songs is an electric story of inheritance and resilience, love and freedom, and the power of music to connect across generations.
