Comes a Dark Stranger... Charming, picturesque Emberside Grange--where Isobel Penrose shared an idyllic life with her widowed father and Lydia, her vivacious older cousin. Then one day a tall, dark stranger invaded their lives. He called himself Simeon Graw. There was something disturbing about the gifted portrait artist in the flowing ebony cape. He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, accompanied by a silent woman clad in black. Disturbing--and frightening. Suddenly Emberside became a place of terrifying night shadows. Lydia had vanished and Isobel, setting out in search of her, was propelled down a twisted road menaced by cloaked desires and sudden death--only to come full circle at Emberside, where she would discover the most shattering truth of all.
