✦ Synopsis
A Philadelphia mansion plays host to uninvited death 1777: In the throes of
the Revolutionary War, Landon Mansion is commandeered by British Lord "Butcher" Bedford.
He stabs Lucy Tarleton - who spurned his king and his love - leaving her to die in her
father's arms. Now: After the day's final tour, docent Allison Leigh makes her rounds
while locking upand finds a colleague slumped over Bedford's desk, impaled on his own
replica bayonet. Resident ghosts may be the stock-in-trade of stately Philadelphia
homes, but Allison - a noted historian - is indignant at the prospect of "ghost hunters"
investigating this apparent murder. Agent Tyler Montague knows his hauntings and his
history. But while Allison is skeptical of the newcomer, a second mysterious murder
occurs. Has "Butcher" Bedford resurfaced? Or is there another malevolent force at work
in Landon Mansion? Wary, yet deeply attracted, Allison has to trust in Tyler and work
with him to discover just what uninvited guest - dead or alive - has taken over the
house. Or their lives could become history!
