". . . every minute of life is education,
especially if you live in
interesting times."

Liz: A real house built in 1795 outside of Nashville is the model for the fictional house. Artifacts my son Worth and others found in and around that house--a ten-thousand-year-old arrowhead, hand-hewn chimney-stones, and even a message written with a diamond on a window pane--became clues in the mystery story. The bones are an added fictional attraction. Anthony is a greedy stinker who would like to hurt Alice who cares about the house.
"I guarantee that you'll find human bones somewhere around this house," Anthony said. "And when I prove whose bones they are, this place will belong to me!"
His eyes were on Alice. And she looked back, dark eyes blazing with fury that would dissolve iron.
He smiled.
I thought: He's one of those people who can enjoy being hated--who can get a sense of power from that.
You can bet I was electrified, amazed, almost unbelieving when
Frank came hurrying from the house--with that sense of drama that
you see in men about to make un-nerving announcements. "You'd better
come quick, and look at what I've found. I think it's human hand bones."
