Recently arrived from Panama Salvaterra wants to know why the house was shunned by the locals and abandoned for nearly a century despite commanding the best views in the county. Terhune digs deep into the mansion’s past and find more than one unsolved―and disturbing―mystery dating back hundreds of years.
