Sinopse

Algernon Henry Blackwood (14 March 1869 – 10 December 1951) was an English broadcasting narrator, journalist, novelist and short story writer, and among the most prolific ghost story writers in the history of the genre. The literary critic S. T. Joshi stated, "His work is more consistently meritorious than any weird writer's except Dunsany's." and that his short story collection Incredible Adventures (1914) "may be the premier weird collection of this or any other century".

    The Château du Ciel was once the destination for the rich and famous to play, drink and ski—complete with a private railway to shuttle those desiring extra privacy—now, however, the guests are few and far between. The New Year’s Eve party was supposed to hoist the rundown hotel back to its former status, until a massive blizzard hits, trapping the guests who’ve come to celebrate the grand hotel’s last hurrah. The circumstances might even be romantic, if the hotel wasn't reputed to be haunted. 
    When hotel employee Mave Michael finds the resident artist dead, and shortly thereafter hotel security finds Mave alone with the body, the reputation that Mave has fought long and hard to outrun comes back to haunt her. You see, her father is a notorious hitman who is serving multiple life sentences in prison. She has changed her name and location dozens of times, but he somehow manages to track her down—even sending her a postcard on the eve of her birthday, January 1st. She’s the perfect choice to frame for murder, and now the number one suspect. 
     
    Mave can no longer deny the lessons in survival her father taught her, and calls on that and her uncanny sixth-sense in “finding” lost objects to navigate the maze of the hotel. To save herself, she not only has to stop running from her own past, she must unearth the history of the hotel, its elite guests and buried secrets—one deadly sin at a time. 
     
    An homage to classic gothic horror, that proves that the ghosts of family and classism are alive and well.

    From socialite to innkeeper, she didn't expect to trade cocktail spirits for another kind entirely. Divorcee Meredith Sullivan is starting over in rural Maine, leaving behind her glamorous NYC lifestyle and cheating husband. The inn she inherits, dubbed Three Crones Inn by the locals, comes with three unexpected ghostly residents. Lottie was the first mistress of Three Crowns, but her cheating husband murdered her. Augusta came to the inn to write, and her spirit never left. Gemini was a '20s flapper on the wrong side of Prohibition. 
    Together, they're enough to drive Meredith insane even as they help her find her way in this new adventure. Hunter, the sexy handyman, is a bonus and a complication she's not sure she's ready to face after ending her 20-year marriage, but if she wants to restore the inn to its former glory, she has to put on her big girl panties and deal with all the challenges coming her way. The mystery of what's happening in the lighthouse must be solved, and she has to keep living. 
    Life's no longer about cocktail parties, but there are still plenty of spirits.
