Zero cemetery lane sounds
more like an address for a Halloween Hall of Fame, not an exclusive bed and breakfast. But, that is the address for the Pink
Lady Slipper and it lives up to its address this time. With the upcoming arrival of six guests, it looks like the winter bookings
are starting off on a good foot. The weather looks threatening but the guests make it. The first question that comes up is
who are the guests? They didn’t give a name when the reservations were made and when they signed in, the only name was
Mr. Marquis.
Trudy owns and runs the slipper
and she has quite the eclectic crew to help. The two hired hands on staff act like brothers yet are constantly fighting like
mortal enemies. Alexandria was her best friend and carpenter as well as all around help at the B&B. Part-time help came
from Alexandria’s boyfriend Stu and Trudy’s friend Xavier. One of the main attractions of the Slipper was the
stagecoach ride, but with winter fast approaching, they needed to set up a trail for a sleigh.
“Where did that gold
handled dagger come from?”
One must admit it is a bit
disconcerting to be fixing a meal and have your primary guest walk in and collapse with a knife between her shoulder blades.
To complicate matters, the first major blizzard of the season shuts down all the roads. It’s difficult to figure out
who may want to kill her if you don’t even know who she is! Before it’s all said and done, more are destined to
meet this same fate.

gone international.
