On the road, she has an eerie, near-collision with a hearse. Arriving at "the old Martin place," she discovers it's been left as it was when her aunt died 30 years before. No one has lived in it since. But locals still whisper about the house being haunted and Jane fears her aunt may have made a pact with the devil.
