For more than a century, the Inn of the Dancing Bear has been a favorite Perry County tavern, restaurant, and overnight accommodation. When the owner, Trevor Dunne, unearths human skeletal remains on the property, he and his wife, Jill, research the inn's history hoping to discover what happened. A series of fires and the death of a local business owner makes Trevor wonder. Are the old skeletal remains related to what is happening in the present? Have his actions caused an ancient killer to strike again? Does history repeat itself?
