The Great Recession has snatched away Jen Carrigan's Silicon Valley job--then her home. Desperate, she packs up her dog and becomes a squatter. The squat? An abandoned mansion in the Santa Cruz Mountains. There, Jen befriends neighbor Stanley Abram, a solitary widower haunted by his own troubled past with the house. When a mysterious holiday invitation from her sister lures Jen back to San Diego and into the shattered family that exiled her years before, the ghosts of the past and her precarious present are set on a collision course. But as she musters the courage to untangle the decades-long web of lies that's defined her life, the mansion delivers a devastating surprise. An emotional thriller set against the backdrop of coastal California, Windfall is the debut novel of author P.W. Borgman.

Ms. Borgman is a lifelong writer who's inspired by stories of women who confront society's expectations and limitations, and by the distinctive history and landscape of the West. A spa entrepreneur for over two decades, her first book was the non-fiction wellness guide, Four Seasons of Inner and Outer Beauty (Random House). Her ear for authentic dialogue, and her appreciation for the ironies of the business world, was shaped by years of listening to women's stories in her Silicon Valley spa. An outdoor painter, nature enthusiast and hiker, she divides her time between the Sierra Nevada's Lake Tahoe region and the Monterey Bay Area. She lives with her husband in tiny Genoa, Nevada, the oldest settlement in the state.
