Lissa | 8 comments I am going out of my mind because I am fairly certain I just saw this book recently! In the 80's I had a series of books that all revolved around the supernatural and teens. The one that I remember was where the main female character went to what I believe was Scotland to visit friends or a cousin and there was a ghost...the lady in the lake or maybe they referred to her as the silver lady in the lake. I also think the main character may have looked like the lady in the lake. (of course!) There was also some teen flirtation, possession and the ghost had blood on her lips. An edit: The paperback covers were a deep dark blue.

Thank you

Liz | 2 comments There was a series of teen books in the 80s called Windswept that was a lot of mystery/supernatural-type stuff...a site called Thriftbook has a list of them with some cover titles...I just found a whole bunch of books I remember reading in the 80s in that list.

Lissa | 8 comments Thank you for your quick reply. I am not sure these are the books I remember. Of course the covers could have changed. Oh! Maybe I should add that to my original comment. The paperback covers were a deep dark blue.

Also in the series are The Loon Lake Murders by Robert Sutherland and, I believe, Mystery At Black Rock Island, which as a cover picture here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Robert-Suthe...

Deadly Sleep
Deadly Sleep (Twilight Where Darkness Begins #1) by Dale Cowan
the GR date is off by a decade, and should be 1982
