Serena Field, eldest daughter of the Field family, has spent thirteen years living under a “confession” her mother wrote for her younger sister, Lyra. She endures every accusation, only to have her engagement stolen when Lyra secretly sends those accusations to the Heath family. Her parents refuse to investigate and demand that Serena admit her “mistakes.” With nowhere left to turn, Serena seeks help from Nanny Ruth, an old ally of her grandmother, and uncovers sealed medical records and a hidden jade pendant. At a family banquet, Serena presents the evidence and exposes the truth. Then she walks away from the family that never stood by her, leaving behind thirteen years of humiliation for good.
