Guest at Gladehaven — Virginia K. Smiley

What did the dazzling young bride really know about the brilliant, mercurial musician she had married? Mandy is swept off her feet by Eddy's whirlwind courtship but when she joins him at his family mansion in the swamplands of Florida she begins to wonder if the man she worships is really a murderer who killed his first wife.

Mandy was swept off her feet by Eddy Thatcher's whirlwind courtship, but what did the dazzled young bride really know about the brilliant, mercurial musician she had married? The question tore at Many's heart as she flew to join Eddy at Gladehaven, his family mansion, deep in the treacherous Florida swampland. Swiftly she discovered why he had begged her to stay away.

There was a lovely blonde temptress named Joy . . . a terrified mute little girl called Amy . . . a hulking handyman with a giant's strength and the mind of a child . . . an old housekeeper consumed by hate. And haunting every dangerous moment was the sinister death of Eddy's first wife, as Mandy struggled in the quicksands of fear to find out if the man she worshipped as a god was really a devil in disguise.
