As Ginny seeks comfort through a manuscript about her great-grandparent's unlikely post-WW 2 romance she discovers secrets about her family and the Woodson House's hidden room. Ginny found the manuscript about her great-grandmother's romance hidden in a secret compartment in an old wooden desk, along with poems about Missy's life after the Civil War.
