The Tenth Key Robin Buckallew

Dreaming of escaping an abusive marriage, Melissa is surprised to realize she has inherited everything; she's even more surprised when she finds out what she inherited. No one knew her grandmother was broke. Melissa resigns herself to the life she knows she can't escape. Then a letter arrives, a letter from the dead woman, a strange poem that seems to have no meaning. As more messages show from an unknown source, she begins to suspect the eight ball and the keys have some significance. If she can only solve the puzzle...what was Grandma Diane trying to tell her? As the entire family erupts into chaos, driven into an ever increasing spiral of madness by the odd legacy, Melissa uncovers her daughter's secret...a secret that mirrors her own childhood all too closely. She has only 30 days to solve the challenge, and now she has to deal with seismic shifts in her family that threaten her sanity...and maybe her very existence. Is it possible that a child's toy could hold the answer?
