About This Book

Every family has its shameful secrets, but none more so than those of the Lee family. Aramenta Lee escaped her controlling mother by moving to Paris thirty years ago. Her quiet life there is shattered by a terse wire: AM DYING - COME HOME - MOTHER. Aramenta arrives in Mobile, Alabama just hours prior to her mother's death. She wants nothing more than to quickly settle the estate and escape family ties, but finds herself thwarted by a macabre secret her mother has held for thirty years.

"BLOOD TELLS"

So mother Lee--haughty, cold, domineering--always told Aramenta. Now mother was dead. Aramenta was home in Lee Manor to fight for her inheritance.

But mother's spectral hands seemed to reach beyond the grave. Imprisoned in the wine cellar was her most bitter legacy, a mute, savage, unspeakable thing--bound to Aramenta by ties as intimate as blood.

Blood that tells. The terror had begun.
