Where Evil Waits — Miriam Lynch

Where Evil Waits

The New England house was none to welcoming--a cold grey, two-story box that looked like it might collapse in a strong wind...Her hostess was none too friendly--a small disheveled woman with a stony little face...

Venetia Winslow was escaping from a revolution that drove her family to poverty...that was responsible for the death of a trusted retainer...Yet here she was falling in love with a too-handsome stranger who might be an enemy--an enemy sworn to murder!
