Eighteen years later, that man has disappeared, leaving Ella struggling to support three sons. As the world fights World War I, Ella battles to keep the mystical Florida land that has been in her family for generations. Then a mysterious man arrives at Ella's door, convincing her he can help. Soon hypocrisy and murder shake the coastal town of Apalachicola and jeopardize Ella's family.

Work Description
While the world is embroiled in World War I, Ella fights her own personal battle to keep the mystical Florida land that has been in her family for generations from the hands of an unscrupulous banker. When a mysterious man arrives at Ella’s door in an unconventional way, he convinces her he can help her avoid foreclosure, and a tenuous trust begins.
But as the fight for Ella’s land intensifies, it becomes evident that things are not as they appear. Hypocrisy and murder soon shake the coastal town of Apalachicola and jeopardize Ella’s family.
