This Aurora Teagarden mystery finds out librarian sleuth looking to buy a house. The one she buys from Gabrielle Rose is the Julius House of the title. Made infamous by the fact the family who owned it a father, mother and daughter drove away in a car one night and just never came back. At least that's the legend of Julius House. Gabrielle Rose is the grandmother who inherited the place.

But demolishing legends in the process of solving mysteries is the Aurora Teagarden specialty. Just around the house she finds bits and pieces and one clinchable clue that makes this missing persons case a homicide.

It's a tale of greed, corruption, and young love run a muck. Note Yannick Bisson as Aurora's steady is really engaged in this mystery, Marilu Henner as Aurora's mother and Bruce Dawson member of Candace Cameron Bure's mystery club seem to hit a rocky patch in their relationship.

The one I would not want to be is Miranda Frigon who was on the original missing persons case. She definitely could get busted back to uniform for the boo boo she made.

One of the best of the series.

These movies are something you want to watch on a Saturday or Sunday. It's a good movie without all the blood and violence in them. It's more about a story then violence. I especially like the addition of Yannick Bisson of Murdock Mysteries as Aurora's boyfriend. Let's hope the writers can keep him in and move that story forward. It shows Aurora maturing. It shows the story moving forward. Something TV shows lack these days.

My wife conned me into watching this because it has Yannick Bisson in it and I am a huge fan of Murdoch Mysteries. I gather that somehow this entry is part of a series based on the writings of Charlaine Harries who writes the Aurora Teagarden books along with a number of others. She must have those who like these Hallmark entries but based on The Julius House, I am not one of them. My major complaint is acting and chemistry. Is seems that either these are some of the worst actors ever or they are just phoning in their performances. And their is zip chemistry among this crew. Marilu Henner and Candace Cameron Bure are supposed to be mother daughter but they don't seem to muster any feelings for one another. And Yannick Bisson and Candace Cameron Bure who are supposed to be dating are about as romantic as wood. Even the mystery is dull. I didn't care who the missing family was or why they were missing. Even after we get the answers, I didn't care. Obviously there is an audience out there for this series, but why is the real mystery.
