Evangeline Cacciatore has spent her life within the walls of St Rose Convent in New York, raised by nuns after being left there as an infant. She knows almost nothing about her origins or the parents who abandoned her. When she helps a visiting scholar with research in the convent's archives, Evangeline stumbles upon documents that reveal a shocking truth about her family's past. The discovery threatens to upend everything she believed about herself and her place in the world. As the mystery deepens, Evangeline must confront forces that have shaped her destiny from birth. Her search for answers becomes a journey into a hidden world where ancient secrets and modern dangers collide. At the heart of her quest lies the question of who she really is and why her family's legacy matters more than she ever imagined.
