The Forces of Bay House is a gripping tale of tragedy and triumph, rescue and redemption, lost identity and the hope of inheritance. Abby Wells, 27, is on the run with her five-year-old son. It's 1965, and her violent marriage must end. Her cousin, William, offers shelter at historic Bay House, his secluded island home in Maryland's Chesapeake Bay, the "Land of Pleasant Living". But is it always pleasant and is William her protector, or predator? Is Abby the estate's rightful inheritor, as her father has always promised? History, mystery, complex characters and spiraling plot twists sprawl under the spell of sea, sky and secrets. Ancient prejudice taints generations of one family while past lives still haunt the present. And a surprising love blooms despite the obstacles. Legend, lies and danger stand between Abby and her journey to discover the truth. Will she have the courage to find it? And what must she risk to prove it?
