To get some much-needed rest out of the public eye, Eliza Blake,
anchor of TV's premiere morning news show KEY to America, rents a
charming carriage house in Tuxedo Park, New York.
Behind the private park's stately stone gates, sprawling
architectural masterpieces and picturesque gardeners' cottages decorate
the rolling, naturalistic landscape. Even before she can move in, Eliza
is invited to an unusual party to celebrate the feast of St. Francis
Assisi and, before the festivities are over, the serenity of the
secluded enclave explodes as one of the Park's revered citizens is found
dead -- a grotesque suicide which is only the first act in a macabre
and intricately conceived plan to expose the past crimes of some of the
town's residents.
Eliza and her KEY News colleagues soon learn that Pentimento -- a
gloriously restored mansion nestled in the Park's fairytale setting --
is, in effect, a giant "puzzle house," filled with ingenious clues
hidden in its fireplaces, fountains and frescos that lead them, first,
to suspicious locales throughout the Park -- and, then, one by one, to
the victims of a fiendish killer!
As Pentimento gives up its many secrets, it becomes clear that
someone wants to prevent one last mystery from coming to light and that
no amount of wealth or privilege will keep the threatened residents of
Tuxedo Park safe. And as Eliza Blake unearths one final secret, she will
come face to face with a murderer who thinks that some puzzles should
never be solved.
