Karen Fand should have been happy. She was embarking on her honeymoon with Philip Dugald, who had wooed -- and won -- her in a lightning-fasting blaze of intense attention'

There in her ancestral home Karen comes face-to-face with evil: someone wants to destroy all living links with the past. Fear becomes Karen's companion as she fights desperately to outwit Death.
