But as soon as she settles in, suspicions serenade her heart. Who is that padding down the hall at night? Who is the little girl she saw in the odd pink ruffled dress? Jessica discovers a shred of paper in an old cookbook that is scrawled hauntingly with the words: "My na...name is...my name is P...my name is Polly Winter..." - and her research begins.

Research turns to panicked investigation as Jessica, aided by Jake, a local artist, uncovers the eerie evidence of an unsolved nineteenth-century murder case that she realizes is being reenacted....
