Letty Hood has spent fifteen years hidden in the Texas Piney Woods because an uncle who wants her inheritance also wants her dead. As her twenty-first birthday approaches, she must secretly return to Houston to claim the fortune, escorted by Pinkerton agent Philip Carmichael. Philip expects a spoiled heiress and instead finds a resilient, intelligent woman whose company challenges his cynical view of the wealthy people he usually protects. Blending Little Red Riding Hood and Sleeping Beauty motifs, the journey becomes a romantic race against an enemy determined to ensure Letty never lives long enough to inherit.
