One night, a psychic arrives, and to liven things up Deborah agrees she may host a sÔeance. But entertainment turns to dark mystery as the psychic reveals that a maid was murdered in this very same house -- and she can prove it. Louisa steps forward to try to solve the cold case. But with a house full of people who want nothing more than to bury their secrets, will she be able to unmask the murderer? And how deep does the truth lie?
