Her Cousin John — Elizabeth Peters

The Face of Evil

From the moment lovely young Jessica Tregarth set foot in England, terror tore at her. She had never seen the dark young man who attempted to do her violence, but she would never forget his face, those mocking eyes, that grotesque mustache. Like a mask of horror in a recurring nightmare it pursued her as she fled across the English countryside -- until she reached sanctuary, the ancestral home where she came to claim her legacy.

The great front door swung open, and there he stood. His mustache was gone now, his smile of triumph was naked.

“Come inside, dear Jessica. Let me make you welcome. I'm your cousin, John.”


Her Cousin John is the U.S. title of The Camelot Caper.
