About the book
Inheritance of gold...or of Death? As soon as Sarah Overmiller saw the beautiful Golden Goose Inn she had inherited from her grandfather, she loved it. Though empty now, she could imagine its warm hearths glowing, its great halls filled with people. With two handsome men vying for her attentions, she set busily and happily to work readying the inn. But something was wrong. Very wrong. First, the old servant Roscoe was murdered after whispering a mysterious message to her. Then, amid rumors of hidden gold, Sarah began to suspect that her grandfather's death was no accident — a suspicion that grew stronger each day as the murderer began to pursue Sarah herself. In a town of strangers, herself the mistress of a secret cache of gold, whom could she turn to, whom could she trust under...The Sign of the Golden Goose.
