An autumn getaway at a secluded inn turns into mystery and murder when a dying man's last words reveal that a ghost is behind the plot, and only Mrs. Xavier Stayton and Miss Lucy Wallace can deduce the truth. Did a specter from beyond the grave give a man with a questionable past a push down the stairs, or did a mortal pass judgment on the bloke's crimes at long last?
