This review is from: A presence in an empty room (Hardcover)

This was the first Velda Johnston novel that I have read, and I was impressed. The book is very quick to get through, and you won't want to put it down. Published in 1980, the story is about a young woman named Susan, who has lost both of her parents. Soon after her father dies, she meets a wealthy man named Martin, at a Manhattan secondhand book shop. Martin is a widow who has lost his wife Irene in a plane crash. Both Susan and Martin become acquainted, and shortly afterwards, marry and move to his home in Maine. When Susan arrives at the house, she starts experiencing headaches. Shortly afterwards, she involuntarily becomes involved with supernatural occurrences caused by Irene. The rest of the story deals with Susan's fight to fend off these strange supernatural occurrences. Although this book is 20 years-old, it is entertaining and I recommend it.
