About This Book

THE MYSTERY, sets the scene for Anne Killian's arrival at Mist House on a cold winter's night in 1821. In a shock of intuition she realizes that here is no ordinary castle...and that she will be no ordinary housekeeper. It takes but one step across the moat to involve her in the strange happenings in the place she has agreed to oversee: the eerie estate with its abbey, its vault, and its legend of The Black Abbess.

Anne Killian becomes mistress to murder, and keeper of the keys to many secrets. Secrets harbored by Lord Richard, her amorous employer. By Lady Lucie, the deceptively frail sleepwalker, By Miss Amanda, the cryptic sculptress. By Monsieur Louis, too charming for his own health.

The Irish beauty, in fact, becomes the warden of a host of suspects in THE MIST AT DARKNESS.
