Amateur sleuths Caroline and Addington Ames delve into the world of restless spirits to solve real crimes in Victorian Boston in this third volume of the Beacon Hill mystery series. Caroline secretly visits a medium, Mrs. Sidgwick, despite her brother Addington's disapproval of the spiritualist craze. Eager to contact their deceased mother, she is accompanied by Dr. McKenzie, a family friend. During the séance, Mrs. Sidgwick impresses attendees, but tragedy strikes when Theophilus Clay, a beloved philanthropist, receives a message from his late wife and dies suddenly. The police conclude that his death is murder, prompting Addington to help clear Mrs. Sidgwick’s name, despite his skepticism of mediums. His unease grows when Mrs. Sidgwick ominously warns, “Ames next,” and Caroline narrowly escapes a fatal accident. Conversations with William James at Harvard only deepen Addington's doubts about the supernatural. He seeks solid proof to connect Mrs. Sidgwick to the murder and Caroline's near-death experience. As with previous installments, this story captures the essence of Victorian Boston and reveals the hidden secrets of its citizens. Additionally, it weaves in the charming romance between Caroline and Dr. McKenzie, offering fans a delightful blend of mystery and love.
