Lady Sinister — Paulette Warren
ALONE IN AN ALIEN AND OMINOUS WORLD, TARA STRUGGLED AGAINST THE POWERS OF A MALEVOLENT FAMILY - AND THE CASTLE'S ANCIENT CURSE.
Tara Landry had prepared herself well for the world. She had gone to college. She had studied psychology - a shocking thing for a woman in 1909. She had learned to parry the advances of the most ardent admirers. But nothing had prepared Tara for a life with the fabulously wealthy Kenworthies - or for Caliban's Castle.
One son was a bounder, another an evil, self-righteous prig. The sister toyed with the supernatural, the niece was shatteringly precocious, and the groom rudely familiar - and outrageously attractive. But the strangest of all the Kenworthies was the Lady, that dread dowager who cast her shadow over the already gloomy terrain of Caliban's Castle.
