The Voice of the House — Margaret Erskine

THE BLACK MELAFAUNTS...BLACK HAIRED AND BLACK TEMPERED...

Beautiful young Romala Melafaunt came to Lorne Abbey, the ancestral manor on the wild Cornish moors, to visit her distant cousin Giles, and almost against her will she found herself drawn to this brooding, mysterious man and his dark secrets. But a series of terrifying and grotesque events forced her to listen to the whispers that echoed through the winding corridors...

Was there some ancient evil taint in Giles' blood? Did he capture her love only to claim her as his Iiightened, helpless victim?

Inspector Septimus Finch becomes an unwilling guest of the aristocratic Melafaunt family, where every member is haunted by THE VOICE OF THE HOUSE
