THE STRANGER HER MOTHER HAD MARRIED
looked at Barbara with eyes of cold hatred. He didn't want her in the house, didn't want her questions about her mother's strange illness. Her brother's grasping fiancee regarded her with undisguised hostility. The doctor's strong resentment of Barbara's concern for her mother was suspicious. This troubled her most of all. For the handsome doctor's eyes and touch marked him as a man who might otherwise have on her confidence - even her love.

But Barbara was to learn that more than her heart was threatened. For something terrible was happening in this house of deadly malice. As the web of evil slowly tightened around her, she faced the chilling realization that someone wanted her out of the way - wanted it badly!
