Silence fell on the room and the breathing was shallow as the three adults anticipated trying to open the mystery jewelry box. Charlie kissed the key for luck and inserted it in the hole at the front of the small cabinet. The key worked and they all held their breath as he gently pulled the knob on the first of three drawers.' When siblings Adam, Charlie, and Sara return to the family homestead for a few days after the sudden passing of their mother, they begin to uncover a past their parents never told them about. While surveying the property, they run across an old tunnel that has been boarded up. Where does it lead? Why hadn't they known about it? And why was it closed? The tunnel isn't their only surprise, when the funeral service finally releases the belongings that their mother was wearing when she passed. A pair of keys on an old chain was worn around her neck, but what do they open? Not only does the childhood farm hold secrets to discover, but they soon begin to suspect the neighboring farmer, a long time family friend is somehow involved. By working together to uncover the past, the siblings unveil messages from their deceased parents. Personal relationships, romance, the local country cemetery, and even letters from long ago intertwine to reveal how this family became who they were. Author C. R. Boonstra captures a generation of mystery in the Homestead Heritage as Adam, Charlie, and Sara work to unravel the secrets that their parents buried long ago.
