Aunt Dimity series, [23]

On a dreary October day, after dropping off her husband to a reclusive client, a storm drives Lori Shepherd of course and leaves her stranded in The King's Ransom, an ancient inn. When Lori is spooked by ghostly noises in the night, Aunt Dimity reminds her that not all ghosts intend to harm the living. But the longer Lori is stuck at the inn, the stranger things seem. She learns that the inn was once a hangout for smugglers and that it's riddled with secret tunnels the smugglers used to reach a network of hidden caves. Then there's the inn's cook who seems to have a beef with a mysterious French guest. Joining forces with Bishop Wyndham and guided by Aunt Dimity's wise counsel, Lori sets out to discover once and for all who, or what, is haunting The King's Ransom
