Cassie Blake was a happy, normal teenage girl - until her mother Amelia Blake dies in what appears to be a tragic accidental fire. Orphan and deeply saddened, Cassie moves in with her warm and loving grandmother Jane Blake in the beautiful small town of Chance Harbor, Washington - the town her mother left so many years ago - where the residents seem to know more about Cassie than she does about herself.
