Johanna Delaney always goes to her Maine vacation home with intentions of settling in for a long summer read. But she's quickly reminded that the beauty around her is far more captivating than the greatest mystery novel or romance.

Scammon, White’s great-great-grandfather, in the home’s attic. Among the items was a...
