Set in the 1850s, CHAPELWAITE sees Charles confront the secrets of his family’s sordid history and fight to end the darkness that has haunted the Boones for generations. Rebecca Morgan, an ambitious young woman who left Preacher’s Corners to attend Mount Holyoke College, has returned home with an advance to write a story for the new and prestigious Atlantic Magazine. Her writer’s block lifts when Boone arrives in town with his children, and, Rebecca applies to be governess of the infamous Chapelwaite manor and the Boone family in order to write about them. In doing so, Rebecca will not only draft the next great gothic novel, she will unravel a mystery that has plagued her own family for years.
