About This Book
SINISTER STREAMSIDE
The old servants Amy had known as a girl were gone. In their place were a convicted murderer, free after serving 20 years of a life sentence, and a beautiful "housekeeper" who seemed much more than that to Streamside's enigmatic master, Roth Pryor.
And what was Francesca, his sister-in-law, doing there? To Amy, it was clear Francesca should still be in the mental institution where she had been confined since an explosion destroyed part of Streamside years ago. Why had Roth brought her to this isolated mansion, with its constant reminders of tragedy?
And finally, why was Amy's life threatened by someone - or something - in a wine velvet cloak scented with the deathly chill of the grave?
