Teenage Frances Adams goes to the village fête with her friends, where they all have their fortunes told by the medium in a booth. It’s all in good fun, until the fortune-teller gives Frances a sinister, mysterious prediction. From that day forward she is convinced she will be murdered and determines to discover her killer — hopefully before they can complete the job.

Now 60-odd years later she owns a country estate and a home in Chelsea, London. It’s the latter where her great niece Annie has lived hearing stories about her eccentric aunt. A solicitor’s letter arrives summoning her to Castle Knoll to finally meet this aunt and discuss updates to Aunt Frances’ will. Annie dutifully heads to the country village but upon arrival finds that Aunt Frances has suddenly died — and it might be murder.
