House of the Cursed A jury finds her innocent, but to all Edinburgh lovely Sarah Bennett is a cold-blooded murderess. When handsome widower John Stone offers her a position as governess to his son, Sarah accepts gladly, for Mr. Stone's home, Dankhurst, lies outside the city. Free from accusing eyes, she will begin a new life. From the moment she enters the brooding mansion, Sarah is drawn into a world of terror. The mistress of Dankhurst, John's wife, has died violently and mysteriously; a haunted figure — perhaps her avenging ghost — leads the young girl too close to a long-buried secret. In a mansion close by bright Edinburgh, Sarah faced terror ... a ghost's revenge and the sinister embrace of the man she loved.
