Cauldron of evil (The Stewarts of Stormhaven

Sinopse

Ardith Stewart had come to Wyndmoor Manor seeking a cure from the sinister ailment racking her body. Instead, she found a curse ravenous for her soul. From the moment she recognized this forbidding edifice as the grim mansion seen in her nightmares . . . and the moment she saw the portrait of a woman slain as a witch and realized that face was her very own . . . Ardith knew that to have come here was folly, to stay here was damnation, and to escape was impossible. Marilyn Ross is one popular pseudonym for the prolific author W. E. D. Ross.
