Penniless and desperate, she takes refuge at Soundcliff, the home of the rich and handsome railroad baron Jay Caldwell. It doesn't take long for Lillie to realize that the Caldwells' lives are shadowed in mystery and doom. Yet despite her deepest misgivings, she finds herself falling in love with Jay.

Will love overcome her fear of the strange night noises that echo through the halls? Will passion overpower her suspicions of the deaths of Jay's two wives? Only when Lillie's life is threatened is she convinced that the mansion holds more than mystery and terror -- it is a haven for murder and the revenge of The Mistress of Soundcliff Manor
