Where There's a Will

Minnie, the steadfast caretaker of Hope Springs Sanatorium, finds herself thrust into a tangled web of secrets when the beloved old doctor dies unexpectedly. As winter storms batter the remote resort, she must keep the fragile patients safe while puzzling over a mysterious blotter that bears a cryptic promise of health. Her sharp wit and quiet courage draw the attention of the charismatic Mr. Sam, whose departure only deepens the sense that something is amiss.

Against a backdrop of bubbling mineral springs and the stark beauty of the frozen landscape, Minnie discovers hidden rivalries and whispers of a will that could change the fortunes of everyone at the sanatorium. The gentle humor of daily chores—slot‑machine mishaps, embroidered linens, and unexpected lettuce sandwiches—contrasts with the growing tension of unspoken motives. Listeners are invited to join her in a delicate balance of duty, intrigue, and the hope that truth will surface before the spring thaws.
