The letters were old, many postmarked from a small town out of state that I’d never heard my husband mention, and as I tried to recall any trips or stories that might explain them, nothing came to mind. The unfamiliar addresses hinted at a place that clearly held some significance, and the more I read, the deeper his secret life seemed to unravel before me.

Each letter held brief, tender notes signed by someone named “Rose.” My breath caught as I read words filled with affection—“My dearest Mark,” one began, “I think of you every day.” Who was Rose, and why had Mark kept these letters hidden? Questions swirled in my mind like a swarm of angry bees. The undeniable warmth between them left no doubt: I had to uncover who Rose was and what she meant to him.
