Every town has its secrets: Skeletons that tumble out of closets, rise fry crypts and even turn up in old basement vaults. For years, the mystery of the Brubaker heritage has been locked away in an underground safe at the Village Library.

When Miss Brubaker discovers clues that can help her start to unravel the tangled tale of the Brubaker dynasty, she pays the ultimate price for her discovery.

A crafty, cold-blooded murderer is on the loose, and it will take the combined wits of the citizens of Custer's Mill to make sure the killer is brought to justice.
