After twenty peaceful summers in town, Miss Rachel Innes rents a furnished country house called Sunnyside for herself, her niece Gertrude and her nephew Halsey. Strange noises in the night are only the beginning: a man is shot dead at the foot of the circular staircase, Halsey vanishes, and a failed bank seems somehow tied to the house.
