Watson is discovered as the doctor in charge of a retreat for convalescent officers, Hulstone Towers Northumberland, ancestral home of the Musgraves, haunted by ghosts and the wailing of lost souls are heard on the limewalks. The Musgraves have opened their home to these patients, but it is a grim, cheerless place. Sexton the doctor assisting Watson is stabbed by an unknown person as the clock in the tower strikes thirteen, an event local legends say precedes the death of a Musgrave.
