Publisher's Synopsis
Young Christmas Channing returns to Jeff because he tells her that his life's in danger, that he's being poisoned with arsenic by his wife. But when she arrives at Morgan House, she doesn't find what she expects--only David, the strange, secretive brother-in-law; Mary, Jeff's cunning, crafty spouse; and Jeff himself, the handsome but vastly changed young man whom she'd once loved, but does not now understand. Chris is lost, confused, and swept into a powerful undertow of danger, panic, and past love. Is Jeff really dying? And just what exactly is going on at Morgan House? It almost seems that the only stop for her now is...death. A wonderfully thrilling and very readable romantic suspense novel!
