Not everyone wants to see Lizzie Borden’s axe. Most people wouldn’t want to spend the night in a certain house in Amityville. But there are always the morbid-minded, the amateur detectives, the opportunistic historians, even the ghost groupies. For those select few, welcome to Pelham Manor, site of a mass murder long enough in the past to feel innocuous, even fun, now. These days it’s being run as a bed-and-breakfast. The Christmas Eve night anniversary of the Pelham family tragedy always guarantees a full house but what a full house!
After running the B&B for twenty years, hostesses Rona and Heidi are getting a little tired of the whole thing, but what the heck, it’s a living. They do not, however, sleep in the guest bedrooms themselves. That’s where the members of the Pelham family violently died, that long-ago Christmas Eve. And Rona, at least, does not want the mystery of what exactly happened that night to ever be solved.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
