The Red Room — Kaye Dobkin

It begins with the robberies. They're not serious - a gold necklace, a scarf, a set of drawing pencils. But they shake up Fielding, the exclusive private school Jessica attends. So Jessica is delighted when her new friend Stephanie White invites her to spend the holidays at the rambling White mansion. She can't wait to escape the trouble at Fielding.

But Jessica's vacation becomes a nightmare. Who sneaks into her room at night? Who prowls the deserted third floor? Can Jessica trust Stephanie's cousin David? He's attractive... but so mysterious. And what about the whispered conversations behind locked doors?

Jessica know something sinister is going on, but she doesn't know she's in danger until the snowy day someone tries to kill her...
