Another one of my epic Christmas gothic novels. This one had me excited. The summary on the back was really intriguing. "WELCOME TO TERROR..."
Nancy's husband, Ralph, has exonerated a woman accused of murder. Jean is a beautiful woman who told Nancy she was in love with Ralph, and now Nancy has to deal with Jean living in the same house. And since Jean's being a caregiver to her hateful mother-in-law, Nancy has a double beam of hate headed her way. When a ghost starts popping up, and Nancy starts becoming the target of a poisoner, it's clear that someone wants her dead.
When I think about old school gothics, this is the kind of thing I'm talking about. You know what's going on. I even had an idea in my head what was happening. I felt so smug and smart. Well, guess what? I was wrong. And I love that! This book was short, sweet, and even though Ralph was super irritating with his rose color glasses, and they killed Rex, I'm giving this one a Good Book! review.
I still don't think it was necessary to kill the dog...
