The House of a Thousand Candles

A capital adventure with a young gentleman banished to a house of mystery, with a reticent valet and a hated executor to look after him. He expects to find himself bored until he realizes his life is in imminent danger. Added to the mix is the saucy child Olivia, of the red tam-o'-shanter; his friend Larry Donovan, devotee of Ireland; Reverend Stoddard, who preaches at the next-door girls's school, and Sister Theresa, who heads that school. And, of course, enemies Murphy and Ferguson...and is Bates, the valet, friend or foe?
Plenty of action in this humorous tale and a final surprise that is both touching and hilarious.
