Barrow Sinister — Elsie Lee
The first View of Stierna Castle
It stood high on the hill, its grey stone walls and ancient turrets framed against a threatening black mass of clouds. At the very instant that lovely young Amanda Smith first gazed at the swiftly approaching ramparts through the rain-streaked car window, a sheet of lightning split the sky, and a sudden, ominous chill shivered through her body.
