✦ Synopsis

What happens when the line between the past and the present begins to blur? Rachel Miller is on the cusp of a new life when she moves to Union Cemetery after marrying Adam, the 7th generation cemetery keeper. Though she's known him only twelve weeks, his tender love seems like a miracle of fate after her years alone. On her first walk through the lush and silent grounds of her new home, Rachel discovers a stunning monument to Tillie Smith, who died in 1886. Reading the words carved into the stone, "She Died in Defence of Her Honor." Rachel is overcome by a powerful memory buried deep in her past. A series of uncanny coincidences linked to Tillie Smith follows, setting Rachel on a journey that grows into an obsession. "The Cemetery Keeper's Wife" poignantly blends fact and fiction as two women scarred by shame, and separated by more than a century, reach across time to rewrite history.--Publisher.
