I received a copy from the author for an honest review.This read is for ages 18 and older.I have found that Ms. Parkes is one of those authors that I LOVE to read.

Out on a run one day, she happens upon The Old Star and sees it has a for rent sign on it. But the real estate agent isn't too sure he wants to lease it out to anyone as it holds many secrets. Cathy isn't one to be swayed away from a challenge and decides this IS the place she wants.Owen Sheringham has painted the same spot on the top floor of the building his family has owned for years.  He's not sure why he can't leave it and not even sure why his family hasn't come back to take him out.
