The Specter of Fear... ...seemed to lovely Alicia Baker to lurk in every shadowy passageway at Ravenswood, the English manor house where she had come to catalog a valuable collection of manuscripts.
After only one night in the gloomy mansion, Alicia could not believe how, on the long ride here, she and handsome lawyer James Montague had laughed over his description of the Black Baron, the legendary resident ghost. Alicia was no longer laughing, for now she knew that the tale of the Black Baron was true. He had already claimed at least one victim: and if dear, loving, protective James did not soon return to recue her from this accursed mansion, Alicia, too, would fall prety to the monstrous ghost at Ravenswood!
