Wind Over the Citadel

What dark menace lurked beneath the lush tropical mask of Cay Fantasma, and why was its evil suddenly directed toward Lori Price? Was it fear, jealousy? Or was it because she dared to challenge the power of obeah…?

Island out of time.

The island of Cay Fantasma, in the West Indies, was only a few miles off the coast of Jamaica, yet it was like another world -- a sixteenth-century world ruled by plantation owner Eric Canmeer and his invalid wife, Grace, from a three-hundred-year-old fortress castle called "The Citadel." Into this anachronistic world came Lori Price, a lovely chestnut-haired product of the twentieth century, as governess and companion to the Vanmeer's precocious teen-aged daughter. Hilga Vanmeer had a flirtatious interest in "older men" -- like wanderer Tony Wood and her cousin, plantation overseer Phil Parker -- and a passion for the rituals of obeah...voodoo! Lori didn't believe in black magic -- though Hilga seemed to have a disturbing ability to walk through locked doors! And she didn't believe in vengeful voodoo spirits. But she could not ignore them after someone -- or something -- tried to kill her.
