The House Had Two Owners: A Consider It Handled Mystery

Twenty-three years ago, a woman vanished without a trace. Now she's threatening to ruin a house sale. From beyond the grave.

Miriam Rusk has everything lined up for her fresh start: a buyer for her waterfront home, a smaller place waiting, and movers practically at the door.

Then a title search reveals one tiny problem.

Her ex-husband's sister, Eileen, is still on the deed.

Eileen disappeared twenty-three years ago. Everyone assumed she'd run off and started a new life.

Until a seawall crew discovers her remains buried behind the house.

Suddenly, Miriam's dream of a fresh start is tangled in a decades-old murder investigation. The sale is on hold, her deposit is at risk, and the clock is ticking.

I was only supposed to help her organize the move. But the deeper I dig into the house's records, the stranger things get. Old photographs, forgotten invoices, and a mysterious work card suggest Eileen was far more involved in the household than anyone remembers.

Someone knows what happened to Eileen.

Someone has kept that secret for twenty-three years.

And if I can't uncover the truth, Miriam might lose more than her house.
