Melody of Malice — Susan Hufford

Love Was A Many-Menaced Thing.

Hilda Hughes had been swept off her feet by brilliant, handsome young pianist Julian DuBois. But how little she knew of this man and the inner demons that drove him soon became clear when she arrived in London to be with him as he prepared for a major concert.

In an aristocratic mansion where Hilda was invited to stay, Julian seldom was to be seen, and terror took his place in her heart. The devil himself seemed to play the keyboard of horror as Hilda learned of the curse that had claimed other women in Julian's life...of the danger following her in this foreign city and fear-shadowed house...of the lies that lured her here and the evil entrapping her. The rhythm of nightmare revelations mounted toward a souls shattering crescendo, and Hilda knew that the siren song of love had swept her up into a satanic dance of death.
