Sinopsis
"A Window Closed" is a unique, multi-layered historical novel with a foundation in factual information and all the embellishment of a fictional story. During the second World War, Stella Manyard is sent from her home on the sparkling coast of California to live with her great-aunt and namesake in the quiet town of Roseville, Virginia while her parents serve in the Armed Forces. Stella dreads the transition from the excitement of the coast to what she fears will be the definition of boredom. Roseville is anything except dull, though, and if it were dull, the house her aunt lives in would have made up for it. The huge pre-Civil War era house has a secret, held as tightly as the shutters that are nailed shut in the neglected library.

All of that is subject to change though, because it is the summer of 1942 and the whole world is changing...}
