Acclaimed Irish master of gothic horror Sheridan Le Fanu adds a little something to appeal to every reader in this atmospheric, suspenseful novel that is an expanded version of one of his earlier short stories, a tale that some critics regard as having been an influence Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre. Young orphan Alice Maybell is taken in by the Fairfield family, but her shot at a lifetime of happiness is imperiled when she finds herself involved in a twisted love triangle.
