The two Miss Pilgrims, Columba and Janetta, think it unwise to leave their fine ancestral home, Pilgrim's Rest. When their brother suffers a fatal fall only days after talking about selling it, and his son, Major Roger Pilgrim, barely escapes two nearly fatal "accidents, " they suspect it deadly to leave. Thank goodness Miss Silver has come for a visit. Surely, her insight and intelligent observations will determine just why the house hates to be empty.
