Shandra visits her grandmother's house to reminisce of the magical times she spent here. Instead of sweet memories she finds a body in the bedroom. Who is this dessicated corpse? Why has no one found it before now? Why did her grandmother really leave Echo Lake? Secrets, murder, romance meander throughout the dialogue as the story of Gam's house is being told. And, always the tension of why and will there be another victim particularly Shandra herself. This is the first Shandra Covington Mystery I have read. From page 3, I was so hooked I knew I was going to read until I finished. And now, I must go and buy all the other books written by Jeffrey S. Savage. ( )
