Along with some vivid descriptions of The Red Door Inn that made it come to life before my eyes like I was right there in the room getting the tour Mia was leading:<\/p>\n The hallway runs from the foyer to the back of the mansion. On this side are the living room, music room, and dining room. Sliding doors connect each of these rooms, as well as a doorway into the hallway. On the other side is the library, the staircase to the second floor, and an office. At the back is another hallway connecting the kitchen and the downstairs bedroom.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n I was also fascinated by the mystery surrounding the ownership of the mansion and genuinely enjoyed the twists and turns\u2014never guessing the true culprit. There were several possibilities, and Anita Dickason was good at keeping them all as good prospects until the end unfolded.<\/p>\n Overall, I was not quite ready to leave my time in Granbury, but I\u2019ll be eagerly looking forward to my next trip there to see what else Tori Winters might be up to next.<\/p>\n Anita Dickason<\/strong>\u00a0is a retired police officer with a total of twenty-seven years of law enforcement experience, twenty-two with Dallas PD.
