Description
The Lady of Ellerslie remains an enigma. In 1920s America, F. Scott Fitzgerald retreats to his rented mansion in Edgemoor, Delaware, seeking inspiration for his next novel. However, the tranquility is short-lived as he shares the estate with a mysterious female spirit. Desperate to sell the property, the owner hires April Ross, a History Department student at the University of Delaware, to research Ellerslie's past. As April delves into the estate's history, she uncovers a dark and tragic tale that has kept the Lady's spirit trapped. With the aid of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, April pieces together the shocking events surrounding the Lady's demise. Their investigation reveals why the ghost remains at Ellerslie, refusing to rest. This gripping story weaves together historical research, mystery, and suspense, as April works to uncover the truth behind the Lady's haunting presence. The result is a captivating tale of love, loss, and the enduring power of the past.
