Kate hears strange sounds coming from it, and sees a light under the door in the small hours of the night…Are she and Mrs. Trowbridge really the only people living in the mansion?
Thank goodness for Adam! Kate never met anyone quite so special. But even Adam has his mysteries. Why does he refuse to come near the estate on certain days? And why does Mrs. Trowbridge call him Billy?
