The Mystery of the Lake House
“It was a quiet Sunday morning in late autumn when the Monroe County Sheriff's Department in upstate New York received an anonymous call. The address: a remote house overlooking Canadice Lake. The reason: a strange, foul smell coming from the property—and no answer from the homeowner, Margaret Ellis, a 54-year-old woman known for her solitary lifestyle.”
“Officers arrived around 10 a.m. The front door was locked from the inside. With legal clearance, they forced entry. Inside, everything was still. A grandfather clock ticked slowly. Margaret was found lying on the living room couch, lifeless. No visible injuries, no sign of struggle—but her body was in an unnatural position, and a full cup of tea sat untouched on the coffee table.”
“The autopsy revealed a shocking cause of death: digitalis poisoning. A deadly plant-based toxin, subtle and difficult to detect. Margaret had ingested it less than an hour before she died. It was murder—cold and calculated.”
“Investigators spoke to neighbors, friends, and family. One name kept coming up: Thomas Ellis, Margaret’s 27-year-old nephew. He had a criminal record for fraud and gambling debts piling up. Most importantly, he stood to inherit the lake house—worth nearly half a million dollars.”
“The breakthrough came when officers found a crumpled receipt in the trash: an online order for digitalis capsules, placed two weeks earlier from an account linked to Thomas. Confronted with the evidence, he confessed. He needed money, and Margaret had refused to help.”
“Thomas Ellis was sentenced to 25 years in prison for second-degree murder. The lake house remains empty. Some say, on misty autumn nights, you can still see a shadowy figure sitting on the couch—tea cup in hand.”
