520 1 $a"Lina Townsend had a difficult start in life, orphaned young and shunted from one foster home to another, always feeling that something was missing. Now, for the first time, she is happy, living in an idyllic Kent village with the kind-hearted antique dealer, Griff. In Griff she has found a good friend, who treats her as his own granddaughter as well as a business partner. Whilst she still yearns for a real family, she at last has some security, a home, a friend, a job. Normality." "But her life is soon to become anything but normal. At an antiques fair one day, Lina spots something extraordinary: a frontispiece from an extremely rare book which triggers a memory from her early childhood. She vividly recalls being taken as a child to a stately home, where a man she believes must have been her father gave her this book to keep her amused. Desperate to trace her real family despite Griff's fears that she may uncover things that she'd rather not know, Lina snatches up the chance to buy the piece and begins a search for the father she never knew. If she can locate the original book, maybe she will be able to trace her father. But her hasty decision is to have serious consequences. It seems Lina is not the only one interested in the antique frontispiece." "As Lina attempts to trace both her father and the origins of the frontispiece, she and her beloved Griff find themselves victim to a series of violent burglaries and attacks. Undeterred, Lina carries on in her pursuit, but as events begin to put a strain on their relationship, it becomes clear that Lina is involved in something a lot more complicated, and dangerous, than some family research."--BOOK JACKET.
