Synopsis: A woman goes undercover to learn the secrets of a haunted house in this “page turner full of mystery and horror” from the Derleth Award–winning author (Kirkus Reviews). She might be a swinging sixties party girl, but Grace Harley’s life is far from easy. Having been implicated in a government scandal, she jumps at the chance to disappear from London and take on a new identity—if only for a little while. Newspaper editor (and Grace’s former lover) Tony Fledgwood has offered her an assignment investigating the great house formerly known as D’Espérance. Once a World War II army hospital, D’Espérance is now home to a mysterious hippie commune. Going undercover to join the group, Grace must discover their secrets . . . and find out what happened to the last journalist who was sent there. But the bells of D’Espérance have a disturbing effect on Grace, and a series of increasingly menacing incidents threaten to not only reveal her predecessor’s fate, but doom her to it.
