The Dead Travel Fast by Deanna Raybourn. 313 p.
I won't repeat the plot precis from Annie's review. I agree wholeheartedly that the setting is essentially a character. The atmosphere is really well done; you can understand how a rational woman like Theodora starts considering supernatural explanations for weird events. (Although--unexpected dog in my room? I'm going to at least look behind the giant tapestries to see if there's a way he could have gotten in....) I may have to try some of Raybourn's other stuff.
