Dear Bess,

Hello, from stormy San Francisco. This time, I'm staying in a beautiful Victorian mansion. You'd love the room I'm in. It's full of old Chinese furnishings and some interesting knick-knacks.

The owner of the house, Rose Green, is a friend of Hannah and asked me to come out and help her with some renovation work. She and her friend, Abby, hope to turn the place into a bed and breakfast by next month.

But, from what I gathered, Rose isn't sure if she can open on time. Ever since they started the renovations, they've had a lot of accidents. Could it be just bad luck or is there something more sinister at work? I'm sure I'll find out!

Love,
Nancy
