"March 3, 1933, the day before Franklin Roosevelt's
inauguration. While Robert Brewster heads to Washington,
D.C., to witness the historic event, his sister, Lily,
travels to a nursing home near Grace & Favor. The owner,
Miss Twibell, has lost an assistant nurse, and the
siblings have agreed to help out." "The home is full of
colorful characters, including a cantankerous old man
named Sean Connor, the only patient who is seriously ill.
The very day the Brewsters arrive, he slips into a coma
and passes away. Though saddened, no one is surprised by
his death - until it's revealed that he's been murdered.
The old man wasn't well liked, but who would bother to
murder him when he had so little time left? Several people
had visited his room that morning, and there are plenty of
suspects. Good motives, on the other hand, are thin on the
ground." "And Mr. Connor isn't the only victim in town.
Over the winter, a young man went missing and was presumed
dead, though no body was found. Now that the spring sun
has melted the ice, a body has surfaced. Is this the
missing man or has a third crime been committed?" With
multiple murders plaguing the community, the Brewster
siblings are more committed than ever to helping the
police find a cold-blooded criminal before he strikes
again.
