A Season of Family Secrets

Ashley Chandler treats an ancestry report as a harmless diversion, only to learn she is not biologically related to the parents she has always known.

She discovers she was adopted, her birth family is in England, and before she starts a research position at Oxford she travels to London for Christmas with the mother who raised her to seek the answers that matter most.

There, Emily Evans uncovers a birth certificate among old papers and learns she has a twin, while her mother admits that sister was placed in a private adoption that seems impossible to trace.

Their father, Henry, has spent years on the run after witnessing a murder and being implicated in the crime, staying estranged from his loved ones and relying on a police officer as a go-between.

As these separate lives begin to meet, the holiday offers Ashley and Emily the chance of a remarkable family reunion and the hope of reconciliation and new beginnings.
