The name of Karoleigh Stafford was the mark of one death and the omen of more to come. Her spirit permeated Walesly-Upon-Thames. Full length portraits of the splendid beauty hung from the walls. Her name was behind every thought. Her ghost inhabited the clock tower, Lady Karoleigh Stafford was dead, but she lived on in the flesh of her nineteen year old daughter, a girl who was " more rain than storm, more shadow than substance." The pall which had fallen over the medieval castle would not be lifted until history repeated itself. The agent of change would be an outsider, another young woman, whose presence would bring the dram to its climax and to its tragic in.

ONE NIGHT OF TERROR
told Amanda Trent that she had become more than a tutor to Karoleigh Stafford of Walesly-Upon-Thames.
She had become obsessed by the vision which held Karoleigh's father, Sir Percy Stafford…by the ghost of his wife, who died ten years before in a mysterious fall from the clock tower.

A GHOST WHICH WOULD NOT REST UNTIL THE SECRETS OF ITS STRANGE DEATH WERE MADE KNOWN.

The ghost of “the most radiantly bewitching woman that ever lived” haunted the night and walked by day in the person of Karoleigh Stafford, who was condemned to live as the image of her mother.
