Hangman's Hill had been known as a house of terror for more than a hundred years, ever since Judge Jason Courtney had used the power of his office to send too many men to the gallows. Now Philip Courtney was determined that his family would be known for saving lives, rather than destroying them, but the ghost of the preceding century lay heavy over the old house, and Death seemed a tenant not at all anxious to leave. There were stories that hinted of murder being done anew, and Melissa Manion, thrust unexpectedly into the midst of a family tragedy, found herself even more unexpectedly in terrible danger. If Death claimed Ravensridge for its own, it would receive no arguments, and Melissa found herself marked to be the last of Hangman Hill's victims!
