The Haunted Garden — W.E.D. Ross

SHADOWS OF NIGHT

Emily Marsh knew now what awaited her when she was summoned to her grandfather's villa on the Spanish coast. Stephen Gaunt had an international reputation for wealth and power, but to Emily he was only the enigmatic man who had disowned her mother.

Emily walked carefully among the villa's elegant inhabitants: the stiffly Teutonic and forbidding Karl Miller; his poised, yet nervous wife Christine; the beautiful Dutch baroness and the impenetrable, Kirk Matthews. Dark secrets lurked behind their tightly drawn faces - secrets so long buried that the very mention of them struck chords of terror.
