Book description
Since she met her fiancé Martin Bartell, Roe Teagarden has never been
happier. There's a difference in age and in background, but he seems to
know exactly what she wants - like the Julius house.
Roe is thrilled when Martin gives her the house as a wedding present.
She's a keen amateur sleuth, and she has always been intrigued by its
infamous history: six years ago, the family who lived there disappeared,
never to be seen again. As Roe throws herself into renovating the Julius
house, her misgivings about Martin's rather murky past recede. But when
Roe is attacked by an axe-wielding maniac, she realises that the secrets
inside her four walls - and her brand-new marriage - could destroy her.
Charlaine Harris is the author of several NEW YORK TIMES bestselling
