The Dark Rose — Janet Louise Roberts
House of Danger
The Civil War was over and beautiful Belinda Valcours was ecstatic - her husband, Jared, was coming home! Now they could start their life at Rosehill, the peaceful, old plantation Jared loved.
But life at Rosehill was not as blissful as Belinda had hoped. Blood-curdling screams from the depths of the backyard swamps awakened her...the mysterious relationship between Jared and Merle Du Bourg, the handsome, wealthy woman he almost married before the war, haunted her...and Jared's cousin, Henri, loved her.
But Henri was a man too insane to deal with reality - yet who harbored a secret that endangered them and threatened all their lives!
Heaven in Hell!
Four years of Civil War had scourged the nation, but now that peace had finally come, the sensible were looking forward to the healing of old wounds...and Belinda Valcour was waiting for the husband she had never known.
Jason had married her only to offer her the protection of his name, not expecting to return from the bloody conflict. But now he was home...and Belinda found herself locked out of his life. He denied her nothing material, surrounding her with opulence and luxury...but he would not grant her entrance to his heart. The taste of wealth was like the taste of ashes...the then the world about her seemed to surrender to insanity as Death once again walked free!
