Teaming up with an old historian to unravel the truth behind the newest murder in the Sheffield Bed and Breakfast, Brenda is forced to confront the dark past behind her inn. With mysterious disappearances haunting the town and no culprit in sight, can Brenda track down the killer? Or do the tales of ghosts lurking the halls have more truth to them than she likes to admit?
