Summary
  • Forced to give up her baby for adoption after the death of her husband in 1908, an Irish teen takes a maid's job at a sprawling New England estate before a mysterious death reveals a five-generation secret.
  • 1908. After her sweetheart dies of fever during the crossing from Ireland, sixteen-year-old Bridey gives up their baby for adoption. She takes a position as maid for the Hollingsworth family, caring for the children as if they were her own. Over the decades, the secrets of Bridey's past haunt the family. In the present day, a connection is made that brings these dark ghost stories into the light. -- adapted from jacket
