Property inherited from your spouse does not constitute a sale or any gain or loss, to you and you do not have to recapture depreciation. The following publications may be of interest to you:
- Publication 544 Sale and other dispositions of assets: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p544.pdf
- Publication 559 Survivors, executors and administrators: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p559.pdf

Do you mean depreciation recapture because you inherited your wife's portion of the property?

What if the surviving spouse already was a joint owner?
