Description:
Virginia
Cash is a young mother of two small children and lives in a small
apartment above a New York diner where she works as a waitress on the
midnight shift. Virginia has just been informed that her husband,
Wylie, is missing in action during a medical rescue north of the 38th
parallel line in Korea.
When Clayton Wilkens and
his wife stop in for a burger during a traffic jam on their way to
Puerto Rico where they plan to retire, they realize that Virginia is
the perfect candidate to take over Eagle Creek Manor and raise her
children.
Ginny, as she’s known
to her friends, asks Edna Taylor, her best friend and babysitter, to
move with her to the manor to help the relocation for her and the
children, 6 year old Donny and 5 year old Anna Marie.
Once they arrive and are
greeted by Peter Clark, the local banker and member of Eagle Creek
Management, unusual events take place. Ginny is offered a job at the
Chase Hotel by Michael Chase, great grandson of Aimee McKay, builder
of Eagle Creek Manor. When someone breaks into Eagle Creek Manor, the
family dog digs up a human bone and a young girl goes missing in
Sycamore Grove, Ginny begins to wonder if the move to Eagle Creek was
a smart one.
When Rosa, the
housekeeper, informs Ginny and Edna that young girls have disappeared
from the area for quite some time, the new occupants of Eagle Creek
Manor, set out to solve the mystery and bring peace of mind to the
residents of Sycamore Grove and Eagle Creek.
Ginny and her best friend
discover there are several popular residents with shady and
questionable pasts. When Edna and Ginny start putting the pieces of
the puzzle together, they are shocked at the results.
A demanding and obsessive
mother has warped her son’s mind and when his father commits
suicide, the man tumbles over the edge of sanity. Now Ginny and Edna
are in his sights. The fear of discovery snaps what’s left of his
mind, and he sets out to remove those responsible for his concern --
Virginia and Edna.
Can a New York waitress
and young mother, along with a middle-aged, retired librarian survive
the madness of a warped mind, or will the move to Eagle Creek destroy
Ginny’s world and take Edna’s life?
