Londoner Julia Meredith seeks refuge from a mysterious stalker at the manor house of an old family friend, where she meets Edward, her handsome nephew, who, along with the new neighbor next door, may be trying to kill her
Engaging read but all the men in this book were unlikeable. Disgusted by the “hero” of the book, he was a chauvinistic pig yet for reason the main fell in love with him 🙄
It's a well written story in a classic style. Mysterious and intriguing and flows quite well. It was difficult to know who the real villain was until the end.
Short & simple gothic. Not OTT exciting. It did have vivid descriptions I expected of the author (Jennifer Wilde) but lacked the familiar ... that made me want to read it -- as "Danger at Dahlkari" which did have some innards of a bodice ripper. I'll try more of these EM's and his other pseudonyms though they go for more than I want to spend.
