PERILOUS LOVE

Pretty Kathy Moore was happy to go to New Orleans as governess to Susan Bradley. It would be a welcome change from the hectic pace of antebellum New York. Susan's handsome father, Richard Bradley, was a wealthy plantation owner whose beautiful young wife had died just a year before. But everyone in the household was strangely silent about her tragic death. Why, Kathy wondered, as she felt herself falling in love with Richard. Then Kathy realized that many people in that house of mourning were opposed to the match. Too late, Kathy knew that one of them had marked her for death!
