A Nightmare Legacy — Jane Corby
Vail's Gate, Amanda's legacy, turned her life into a fear-ridden nightmare...
Who was trying to prevent Amanda from claiming her inheritance?
Amanda Vail had returned to the great house on the New England cliffs to claim it as her legacy under the terms of her great-uncle's will. But the Laytons, caretakers of the mansion, treated her as an intruder, insisting that the estate was rightfully theirs according to the terms of another -- and later -- will made by old Jasper Vail.
Fearful of what these avaricious people might do to her, Amanda turned for help to two men: Bill Atherton, an artist who had begun a painting of her five years ago and who had involved her in suspicious gossip when his wife disappeared, and Hugh Marley, a handsome writer living on the Vail estate and hiding from....Amanda didn't know what.
A sudden and horrifying discovery caused Amanda to turn on both men and run for her life!
