Picking up where Christopher's Diary: Secrets of Foxworth leaves
off, Kristin Masterwood and her boyfriend up the ante--by going into her
attic to re-enact scenes described in Christopher Dollanganger's
journal.
Jealousy, tragedy, survival, and revenge--the discovery of Christopher's
diary in the ruins of Foxworth Hall brings new secrets of the
Dollanganger family to light and obsesses a new generation. With
Flowers in the Attic and Petals on the Wind both now major Lifetime
TV events, the first new Dollanganger stories in nearly thirty years is
a timely look at the events in the attic--from teenage Christopher's
point of view.
Christopher Dollanganger was fourteen when he and his younger
siblings--Cathy and the twins, Cory and Carrie--were locked away in the
attic of Foxworth Hall, prisoners of their mother's greedy inheritance
scheme. For three long years he kept hope alive for the sake of the
others. But the shocking truth about how their ordeal affected him was
always kept hidden--until now.
Seventeen-year-old Kristin Masterwood is thrilled when her father's
construction company is hired to inspect the Foxworth property for a
prospective buyer. The once grand Southern mansion still sparks legends
and half-truths about the four innocent Dollanganger children, even all
these decades later. Foxworth holds a special fascination for Kristin,
who was too young when her mother died to learn much about her distant
blood tie to the notorious family.
Accompanying her dad to the "forbidden territory," they find a
leather-bound book, its yellowed pages filled with the neat script of
Christopher Dollanganger himself. Her father grows increasingly uneasy
about her reading it, but as she devours the teen's story page by page,
his shattering account of temptation, heartache, courage, and betrayal
overtakes Kristin's every thought. And soon her obsession with the
doomed boy crosses a dangerous line...
