Morgan is experiencing stress at work because the publishers are losing money and dropping authors and editors. However, she has a manuscript that could potentially turn things around for General Publishing Company. The manuscript has been passed down through generations and Morgan is convinced that it is the unpublished autobiography of Sarah Winchester. Olivia used to work for Mr. Lieb but left after falling pregnant by a deceitful man. Luckily, she has found employment with Mrs. Winchester, who is willing to help her hide her pregnancy as they work on a new project. Mrs. Winchester has been the subject of many rumors, but she now wants to tell her story. To find out more about their journey and to find out if Mrs. Winchester is indeed a crazy spiritualist, you should read Mrs. Winchester's Biographer by Deanna Lynn Sletten.
