A Senator who vanished. . . An old man with regrets. . . Editor Kurt Borden's star reporter is struggling with depression. Long before Kurt bought his lakeside house in Maine, a senator owned the cottage next door. When Mick Tyler shows interest in the story, Kurt sends him out to do a feature on the senator, who disappeared more than 40 years ago. Maybe Mick's fascination with the tale will lift his depression. But Mick never comes back. Kurt's wife finds an elderly neighbor ill in his home. The old man, Elwood Fairmont, begs Janet to give a cryptic message to his grown children. Elwood's children gather, but their father's words mystify them. Was what he told Janet a dying confession? Kurt assigns bright young reporter Dave Carpenter to write about Mick's disappearance. When Dave investigates the story his colleague was pursuing, Kurt's life is threatened. Janet finds a clue that makes them wonder: Are Elwood's regrets and Mick's disappearance connected to things that happened decades ago? To unravel the close-woven mysteries, Kurt and Janet must rely on their faith and use all their wits and diplomatic skills
