Shoe Marks
In 1899, Maggie Horton was the epitome of what every young woman wanted to be— married with children. She led a charmed life on her homestead in Ellensville, Texas, alongside a husband who worshiped the ground she walked on and a former lover who still desired her.
One unsuspecting day, her jealous husband swiftly ended her life. However, there was one thing she left behind that would stand the test of time, her shoe marks. After forty-five years, they still remain in the house she once lived in as well as her undying spirit. Why? Ever since Maggie was brutally murdered at the hands of the man she loved, her tormented soul searches for acceptance and love from a family who will stay for the long haul.
