The Second Secret — Edwina Noone
There had long been rumors about Freneau House - of evil doings and mysterious goings-on. But young Cherry Williams ignored all warnings when she became the bride of handsome and willful Adam Freneau.
From the first, Cherry did not feel comfortable in the old mansion. There was the cold welcome of her sister-in-law, the dark and strangely beautiful Clara, and Cherry fancied that the empty rooms were filled with unexpected shadows and sly whispers of voices long dead. And then, quite suddenly, her beloved Adam seemed too detached, almost forbidding.
Her lingering fears grew into naked terror after she was almost killed in the wine cellar. Some people called it an accident; she knew it wasn't. Someone in the house wanted her dead - but who...and for what ghastly purpose?
