Fifteen-year-old Renee Steele is caught in the middle of a growing battle between her two older cousins. It seems that Pa-Pa’s words were forgotten: "A deathbed shouldn't be the peacemaker in this family."As tension mounts between the three girls, Grandma Bell detects trouble returning from the grave. She’s determined to stop it, and takes the girls on a quest back in time to do it.
Her narrative begins with her secret courtship and eloping with Pa-Pa, “Buck Steele”, because their fathers are archenemies. Due to a lack of money, the newlyweds are forced to live with Buck’s parents, Silas and Emma. Grandma Bell quickly suffers the blows of hatred and rejection. Something about her stirs up a Steele family secret. She soon learns that her presence does more than anger her in-laws…it haunts them!
