For twelve years, it remained untouched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow a near fatal riding accident has shattered Piper’s dreams of Olympic glory. After her grandfather’s death, she inherits the house and all its secrets, including a key to a room that doesn’t exist—or does it? And after her grandmother is sent away to a nursing home, she remembers the box buried in the backyard. In it are torn pages from a scrapbook, a charm necklace—and a newspaper article from 1939 about the body of an infant found floating in the Savannah River. The necklace’s charms tell the story of three friends during the 1930s— each charm added during the three months each friend had the necklace and recorded her life in the scrapbook. Piper always dismissed her grandmother as not having had a story to tell. And now, too late, Piper finds she might have been wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScience Fiction \u0026amp; Fantasy\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScience Fiction\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eCrime \u0026amp; Mystery\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Berkley","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45270886940862,"sku":"0451226496-4","price":24.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/81i79AAavcL.jpg?v=1754399472","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/0451226496-the_lost_hours","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
