Moonshadow Mansion — Thelma Rene Bernard
A Haunting Story...
Both dream and nightmare awaited the young French orphan, Destine, when she was deserted by her older sister and forced to leave London and its familiar vistas for the isolated moors of the north of England. The mansion in which she was to live was inhabited by two women--the invalid mother of a forlorn child, and an elderly aunt.
Most of the old house had been boarded up, and all the entrances were securely padlocked. But strange noises were heard at night, and candlelight often could be seen at the basement windows--a basement which had not been occupied for many years!
All Destine brought with her was courage and curiosity, and love for the child who so desperately needed care and attention. Would this be enough?
