SummaryDespite his admonitions to stay away, Lady Julia arrives in
Yorkshire to find Brisbane as remote and maddeningly
attractive as ever. Cloistered together, they share the
moldering house with the proud but impoverished remnants of
an ancient familythe sort that keeps their bloodline
pure and their secrets close. Lady Allenby and her
daughters, dependent upon Brisbane and devastated by their
fall in society, seem adrift on the moor winds, powerless to
change their fortunes. But poison does not discriminate
between classes....
A mystery unfolds from the rotten heart of Grimsgrave, one
Lady Julia may have to solve alone, as Brisbane appears
inextricably tangled in its heinous twists and turns. But
blood will out, and before spring touches the craggy
northern landscape, Lady Julia will have uncovered a Gypsy
witch, a dark rider and a long-buried legacy of malevolence
and evil.
