The Silent Halls of Ashenden — Dorothy Daniels
Will The Eerie Silence Of Evil Ever End?
The gossip was ugly. It implied that Charles Cameron, headmaster of the Ashendon School, was a practicing demon worshipper. When three young students committed suicide, Cameron was held responsible for their deaths. Everyone said their girlish minds had been unable to cope with the headmaster's instructions in the arts of Satanism. Dazed and horrified, he hanged himself. And the exclusive girls school closed in a haze of evil and mystery.
Many years later Cameron's widow, mentally ill and dying, begs her daughter Mara to return to the school, reopen it and clear her father's name. She sets out on this mission, unaware that the devil's henchmen still stalk the halls of the institution. But are these satanic forces supernatural or are they human?
