PUBLISHING OCTOBER 2026

Fourteen years after walking away from Oakwood Manor, bestselling author Angelica Chancellor is summoned home by her dying father. Grayson Chancellor—wealthy publisher, former senator, and once a presidential hopeful—promises to reveal three secrets that altered the course of her life.
Behind the Chancellor family’s public legacy lie generations of ambition, loss, and carefully protected deception. As unexpected people from Angelica’s past gather at the estate, every revelation forces her to reconsider what she believes about her father, her family, and herself.
Before the truth is complete, violence returns to Oakwood Manor. Angelica must decide whether exposing the family’s secrets will finally free her—or make her the next person responsible for keeping them.
Across three novels, the Chancellor family’s carefully protected history is revealed—how it began, what it cost, and whether a new generation can finally break free.

Angelica Chancellor returns to Oakwood Manor and begins questioning the history she was taught. Her arrival cracks the first facade of a powerful family's carefully constructed story, exposing a legacy built on appearances, silence, and secrets she never expected to challenge.
