Ruby Proulxโs new life in Orchard Beach, Maine, faces some sinister
complications in the next Change of Fortune Mystery by Jessica Estevaoโฆ
Free from the clutches of her con artist father, Ruby Proulx is starting to
settle in at the Belden, her aunt Honoriaโs seaside hotel. She loves finally
being rooted in one place and also feels a sense of purpose as she helps Honoria
keep her business afloat by acting as a psychic medium for the hotelโs
metaphysically inclined guests.
When one of the guests, renowned Spiritualist and outspoken suffragist
Sophronia Foster Eldridge, checks into the hotel for a monthlong stay, Ruby
finds her sense of purpose expands outside the confines of home and family.
Sophronia takes Ruby under her wing and mentors her in the mediumistic
abilities, encouraging her to fight for womenโs rights.
But not everyone is as happy with Sophroniaโs appearance in Old Orchard. When
a dangerous act of sabotage is carried out and a body is found floating in the
pool of a local bathhouse, Ruby takes it upon herself to find answersโand in the
process learns that her new friend has been hiding some deadly secrets of her
ownโฆ
