The Dark Secret of Hunters Hall — Lee Karr
"What are you afraid of, Donna?"
Deanna Banning had fled her family home in Brimstone, Colorado, harboring a secret so shaming and terrible that its burden threatened to destroy her. But after toiling as a governess in faraway New York for five long years, Deanna dared to return to Hunters Hall and the twin brother she missed so much. Surely the haunting ghosts of the past had been laid to rest by now. But the moment Deanna stepped off the train, she knew that coming home had been a mistake...and that her life was in deadly danger. Her brother and his wife kept their distance. A former suitor shocked her with his vicious words. Even the handsome new minister seemed to mistrust her. Then a visitor met a gruesome death in the garden...and Deanna was accused. Someone wanted her to leave Hunters Hall - and would stop at nothing to silence her - permanently!
