Old good England, 1965. A fairground fortune teller predicts a horrifying future for sixteen-year-old Frances Adams: one day the girl will be killed… Since then, she has dedicated her whole life to investigating a murder that has not yet occurred....
Nobody took Frances’s fears seriously until, sixty years later, her corpse is found in the library.
Present day. Annie Adams is invited to Gravesdown Hall – the vast country estate of her eccentric cousin Frances. But when the girl arrives in the quirky village of Castle Knoll, the old woman is already dead. And according to the will, all of her vast fortune and the estate will go to whoever solves this murder. The investigation is complicated by Frances's habit of collecting compromising material on everyone. It seems that every sweet and eccentric local resident had a motive to kill her.
Together with another heir, Annie finds herself drawn into an extremely dangerous game. And the closer the resolution gets, the more fears arise that instead of Gravesdown Hall, she will inherit the sad fate of her grandmother…
