Local legend says that a visitor can gain answers to lifes most difficult problems simply by walking through its lush corridors.
Yet the labyrinth has never helped Olivia Pennywort, the gardens beautiful and enigmatic caretaker. She has spent her entire life on her familys land, harboring a secret that forces her to keep everyone at arms length. But when her childhood best friend, Sam Van Winkle, returns to the valley, Olivia begins to question her safe, isolated world and wonders if she at last has the courage to let someone in. As she and Sam reconnect, Olivia faces a difficult question: Is the garden maze that she has nurtured all of her life a safe haven or a prison?
