About This Book

Dread House the gloomy mansion overlooking Ireland's storm-swept coast, where shipwrecks were a common occurrence and salvage was a way of life to the impoverished villagers. It was here that lovely young Moira Bannion came on a visit to her father -- only to discover that handsome Stephen Dread and not Paddy Bannion was the true master of Dread House.

And from the moment of her arrival at the mansion, Moira became a helpless pawn in a terrifying game she didn't understand. Yet there was no one she could turn to for help. Not her father, who had lied to her from the start. Not Stephen, who seemed to forget he had a wife whenever Moira was near. Not Mrs. Dread, who appeared to be almost too well-informed about the shipwrecks along the coast. Some dark evil was casting its shadow over all of them, and Moira knew she must escape this place at once. But her heart betrayed her into staying until it was far, far too late....
