Sally's third case begins when she is approached by her friend, Emma Schultz. There are puzzling events taking place at the family estate where Emma's mother and maiden aunt reside. The two older ladies are being pressured to move so Emlee can be sold. When their mother died five years earlier, her will stipulated they could live out their lives at the family home, so why does their nephew want them to move? When the suggestion is spurned, a beloved cat disappears, a snake is found in the kitchen, and the house is broken into. Would Sally look into it? Sally asks for the advice of her two comrades, Anne Perry and George Thomas. A plan is devised where Anne poses as an old friend from Emma's mother's past. Sally makes her presence look unpretentious by volunteering to chauffeur the elderly lady. The two of them soon find family ill-will and long kept secrets that are starting to surface. Two days after their arrival an unsavory neighbor is shot to death. He has no connection to the well-respected Bradshaws-or does he?Once again Sally and her two assistants find the answers, plus an answer or two they weren't looking for.
