News of her brother's worrisome
behavior spurs Miss Rebecca Lane to return home to her village. Upon her
arrival, he begs her to go to nearby Swanford Abbey, a medieval monastery
turned grand hotel rumored to be haunted. Feeling responsible for her brother's
desperate state, she reluctantly agrees to stay at the abbey until she can
deliver his manuscript to a fellow guest who might help him get published--an
author who once betrayed them.
Soon, Rebecca starts seeing strange things, including a
figure in a hooded black gown gliding silently through the abbey's cloisters at
night. For all its renovations and veneer of luxury, the ancient foundations
seem to echo with whispers of the past--including her own. For there she
encounters Sir Frederick--baronet, magistrate, and former neighbor--who long
ago broke her heart. Now a handsome widower of thirty-five, he is trying to
overcome a past betrayal of his own.
When the famous author is found dead, Sir Frederick makes
inquiries and quickly discovers that several people held grudges against the
author, including Miss Lane and her brother. As Sir Frederick searches for
answers, he is torn between his growing feelings for Rebecca and his pursuit of
the truth. For Miss Lane is clearly hiding something. . . .
