In the sprawling countryside of Montana, beautiful widow Chas Henrie cares for her Dickens-loving Granny Fanny, runs the Dickensian Inn in Anaconda, and deals with her private grief and past secrets the only way she can--alone. But when her handsome guest, FBI special agent Jackson Leeds enters her life, things change quickly for both of them, and especially for Jackson whose lifestyle and past are both troubled and troubling.

In this compelling conclusion to a remarkable series, the Dickensian Inn once again proves itself to be a place of warmth and welcome-a place where, under the gentle tutelage and friendship of proprietors Chas and Jackson Leeds, the light of the gospel and the miracle of forgiveness change people's lives and bring peace and healing.

As Chas and Jackson agonize over the chances of survival for their baby daughter, a former FBI colleague calls them to ask if they would hide a woman in the witness protection program. Although Jackson and Chas agree to let her stay at the Dickens Inn, when the woman arrives they realize she is hiding something, and soon lives are in danger.
