The Ghost of Ridgeton Manor

Summary

A country manor, a hopeful bride . . . and ghostly rumors that refuse to stay buried.

When Sue Jaworski's granddaughter, Jessica, considers Ridgeton Manor for her wedding reception, Sue offers to check out the venue. But what should be a simple visit takes a troubling turn when she's pulled over by a suspicious officer, issued a questionable ticket, and subjected to an unwarranted search. Things escalate when her husband Alan—Aspen Notch's police chief—discovers cocaine in her trunk and realizes she may have been duped.

At the manor, owner Irene MacDougal is battling a different kind of threat: ghost stories that are scaring off her guests. Strange noises, unexplained sightings, and whispers of hauntings have put her business on shaky ground. Irene turns to Sue for help separating fact from fiction.

While Alan investigates the impersonation, Sue digs into the manor's mysteries and begins to suspect the so-called hauntings are as staged as the traffic stop. Someone clearly wants the bed-and-breakfast shut down—and Jessica's wedding plans might just be collateral damage.
