In 1965 and teenage Frances Adams was at an English country fair when a fortune-teller told her that one day she would be murdered. Frances spent a lifetime trying to solve a crime that hadn't happened yet, compiling dirt on every person who crosses her path in an effort to prevent her own demise. For decades, no one took Frances seriously. Until, nearly sixty years later, when Frances is found murdered.
In the present day, Annie Adams has been summoned to a meeting at the sprawling country estate of her wealthy and reclusive great aunt Frances. But by the time Annie arrives in the quaint English village of Castle Knoll, Frances is already dead. Annie is determined to catch the killer, but thanks to Frances’s lifelong habit of digging up secrets, it seems every endearing and eccentric villager might just have a motive for her murder.
Can Annie safely unravel the dark mystery at the heart of Castle Knoll, or will dredging up the past throw her into the path of a killer? As Annie gets closer to the truth, and closer to the danger, she starts to fear she might inherit her great aunt’s fate instead of her fortune.
