The story unfolds in and around the mysterious Beech Lodge, primarily focusing on Derrick and his sister Edith, who have recently moved in, along with the enigmatic housemaid, Perkins. The narrative hints at dark past events, including an unsolved murder that adds an eerie feel to their new life. The opening of the book introduces Mr. Jarrad and his colleague Dawkins as they conduct an inventory at Beech Lodge, discussing the peculiarities of the room and its haunting past, including the sudden death of its previous occupant, Mr. Millicent. Their conversation is interrupted by the arrival of Perkins, the housemaid, whose unsettling presence intrigues and unnerves the men. As Derrick and Edith settle in, they confront not only the house's history but also the enigmatic aura surrounding Perkins and the echoes of Millicent. Derrick feels a connection to the room and senses that something from the past is guiding him, a feeling that is amplified by the odd behavior of those surrounding them and a series of strange occurrences in the house.
