The Eve of Miller's Haunting — J.E. Parker

A church bell tolls at midnight. A scream resonates; bagpipes skirl -- the graveyard freezes over. Villagers whisper of James Miller's ghost. The year is 1954, and amid sub-zero snowfalls, Christmas shopping pandemonium, demanding concert rehearsals, and a heartbreaking tryst, Rebecca Chase scrouges time to snoop. But snooping invites trouble. Rebecca discovers Lord Linley's fabled fortune, inciting rogue claimants to eradicate the legitimate heir -- along with Rebecca.

Can Rebecca outwit her assailants? Can she bring off a successful concert performance; reunite a feuding family; reconcile her romance; resolve the fabled Miller's haunting of 300 years past -- then host the perfect Christmas Day? Not all ends well. But yuletide celebrations bring a reward unexpected.
