Briarwood Girls

Alison Fair returns home for summer after a promising first year at Briarwood College, only to learn that her family’s tight finances will keep her from continuing her studies. Determined to hide her disappointment from her parents, she turns the season into a quiet wait, reading letters from distant friends that pulse with the campus life she’s missing. The weight of unfulfilled plans settles over her until a sudden family announcement—her eccentric great‑aunt in New England has died—opens a door to an unexpected inheritance and a mystery that could change everything.

As the Fair household gathers around the will, Alison discovers clues that hint at a forgotten lamp and hidden secrets tied to her family’s past. The promise of adventure awakens her curiosity, offering a chance to reclaim the academic dreams she thought were lost. Listeners will be drawn into a story of youthful hope, family ties, and the tantalizing possibility that a single discovery may rewrite her future.
