Hawksbill Manor — Alicia Grace
ISLE OF DARK SHADOWS
The Napoleonic Wars were ravaging Europe, reaching out their bloody hands to touch the lives of innocent people. Patricia Wright was one of those people. Widowed when her husband was killed in His Majesty's Navy, alone and struggling to survive London's wartime hardships, she accepted a position as governess to Roger Hamden's son on the mysterious island of Antigua in the West Indies.
But no sooner had her arduous sea voyage ended than she discovered that Antigua, with its voodoo legends, was to become a nightmare of terror. Instead of an escape to paradise, she fell into a hideous drama cast with evil shadows out of the island's vilest legends.
