Dear Bess,

I'm just about finished with my renovation work and counting out all of those gold coins! Louis was behind all of the accidents, trying to pressure Rose into selling the house so he could find the treasure himself.

Although Rose and Abby may not have legal rights to the gold, the bank from which the coins were stolen from will still honor its reward for finding it.

The house has also gotten a lot of publicity with all of the news stories, and the place is booked solid for the first month of its opening. I guess a haunted bed and breakfast with hidden treasure is all the rage theses days, even if there are no such things as ghosts........I think.

See you soon!
Nancy
