Would she never be free from her dark past?, January 25, 2011
This review is from: The Dark Secret of Hunters Hall (Zebra books) (Paperback)
Back-cover: 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 as accused. Someone wanted her to leave Hunters Hall-and would stop at nothing to silence her-permanently!
I was worried about reading this book because the last Zebra Gothic I read by Lee Karr had the heroine being almost raped a ton of times and the hero was hardly in the book at all. But this one was quite different. The mystery was good and the romance also. I will defiantly read this book again.
