This came out during the height of the gothic genre, but Elsie Lee's books stood above most of the rest. Her feisty heroines, glamourous settings and romantic suspense are very enjoyable. She has a devoted following.
From the back cover: At first, the job seemed a heaven-sent gift to a lovely young Megan Royce. . . who desperately needed a helping hand. What could be better than having all the expenses of her imperative trip to Europe paid. . . in return for being the pleasant guest of a charming, imperious Contessa? But the situation changed rapidly as frightening complication piled on frightening complication. Megan's trip did not end in Paris as originally planned. It went on to Italy. . . to the beautiful but menacing old castle of Vellanti. And two questions loomed urgently on the starkly brooding horizon: what was the menace, and who the victim? Megan's already bruised emotions were due for even more severe battering before she learned the answers -- and found the one person in the entire dark tangle that she could trust. . . and love.
