The Fatal Flower

The Mysterious Captive

As the train that was bringing her to a reunion with her famous actress mother pulled into the station, Alice Whelan observed a strange incident from her window. She saw a young girl running across a field, pursued by a uniformed chauffeur who soon overtook her and forced her into a waiting limousine. Later Alice recognized both the car and its driver on the grounds of her stepfather's estate. But everyone who listened to Alice's story vigorously denied the girl's existence. Convinced that they were all lying, Alice set out to find the pretty captive herself, little knowing that her search would unlock a whole household of horrors!
