Synopsis: While visiting her sister, a woman becomes ensnared in a cursed houseSerena&’s last memories of California are of her sister Amanda&’s wedding to Sutton Condit, a wealthy rancher from Monterey&’s oldest family. But when she remembers those days, she doesn&’t think of the bride but instead dreams of Jem, a sturdy young man who won her heart so completely that, when she couldn&’t have him, she fled to New York. Four years later she returns for a visit, and Jem is as charming as ever. He hasn&’t changed, but everything else on the Condit ranch has. Bitterness has crept into Amanda&’s entourage, and strange secrets pollute the fine California air. Something terrible is afoot in the Condit mansion, and Serena has just begun to sense it when Sutton&’s aunt tumbles off a cliff near the house. The old woman&’s plunge seems like an accident until more murders follow. Nothing can protect Serena from the menace that haunts Monterey.
