Candle at Midnight — Frances Lynch
INNOCENCE HAD NO PLACE AT THE ABBEY
Young Elizabeth Mason had never seen the Abbey before she arrived to take up her post at the great estate. But from her first troubling moments in this place that held so much glamour in the present, so much drama in the past, she was gripped by a certainly that she belonged here -- for good or for evil.
Here an aging earl displayed far more than a kindly employer's interest in her. Here three so-different men plainly found her a fascinating woman. Here a beautiful, bitter woman unmasked a venomous hatred for her. And here, beyond a shadow of a doubt, Beth stumbled toward the strange secret of the Abbey, and the even more shattering truth about herself.
