Description
Mr. Satterthwaite has always enjoyed being around young people, their energy and lack of cares. When he is invited to Madge Keeley's for a game of Ouija, he forsakes the comfort of his home in London, and joins in. It's not long before the board surprisingly spells out "QUIN" and the name of a place. Mr. Satterthwaite’s instincts tell him that a murder may occur soon and that he should drop everything to investigate…
