Where one story ends, another begins. 1861. Miss Lucinda Leavitt is shocked when she learns the author of her favorite serialized novel has died before completing the story. Determined to know how it ends, Lucinda reluctantly enlists the help of her father's young business partner, Mr. David Randall, to track down the reclusive author's final papers.

David is a successful young businessman who is overwhelmed by his workload. He is eager to prove to the world - and to himself - that he's capable of following in his late father's footsteps. He doesn't have the time nor the interest for this endeavor, but Lucinda is not the type to take no for an answer.

This search for the elusive Mrs. Smith and the rightful ending to her novel leads Lucinda and David around the country, but the truth they discover about themselves - and each other - are anything but fictional.
