Mount Mellyn stood as proud and magnificent as she had envisioned. But what about its master—Connan TreMellyn? Was Martha Leigh's new employer as romantic as his name sounded? As she approached the mansion towering above the cliffs of Cornwall, an odd chill of apprehension overcame her. TreMellyn's young daugher proved as spoiled and difficult as the three governesses before Martha had discovered. But it was the girl's father whose arrogant demeanor unleashed unfamiliar sensations and turmoil—even as whispers of past tragedy and present danger begin to insinuate themselves into her life.

Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches - a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women. Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale.

John Fowles’s The Magus was a literary landmark of the 1960s. Nicholas Urfe goes to a Greek island to teach at a private school and becomes enmeshed in curious happenings at the home of a mysterious Greek recluse, Maurice Conchis. Are these events, involving attractive young English sisters, just psychological games, or an elaborate joke, or more? Reality shifts as the story unfolds. The Magus reflected the issues of the 1960s perfectly, and it continues to create tension and concern today.

As she approached the mansion towering above the cliffs of Cornwall, an odd chill of apprehension overcame her. TreMellyn's young daugher proved as spoiled and difficult as the three governesses before Martha had discovered. But it was the girl's father whose arrogant demeanor unleashed unfamiliar sensations and turmoil—even as whispers of past tragedy and present danger begin to insinuate themselves into her life.

Holds your interest……
I read several Phyllis Whitney books years ago and recently chose a couple from the plus catalog. Her stories include some plot elements that seem a bit unbelievable but they have all held my interest and include a mystery that keeps you reading.

Vintage Whitney
Nostalgic gothic novel, a well plotted story that came alive with a great narrator. I have read this a long time ago, and still didn’t guess the ending!

Must be an Anna Fields fan
Is there anything you would change about this book?
this author is not for me. good outline, but the story just not expanded enough for me.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
this could have been great if the author added more core romance to the story.
Which character – as performed by Anna Fields – was your favorite?
I purchased as the late great Ms Fields read this story.I hunt down as many of her recordings as I can get. She made all her male heros just so yummy. I have all of her Susan Elizabeth Phillips recordings. It Had to be You is my fave. Hence, I purchased this story as it is set in the Carolinas.
Any additional comments?
If you like an ez listen, with an mystery and no hot romance, then is author is for you

As good today as when it was written!
Phyllis Whitney gave me my love for gothic novels. Star Flight is a good example of her books. That touch of mysticism and increasing sense of danger adds to a story that is always good to revisit.

I REALLY LIKED THE STYLE OF THE INTRODUCTION AND PROLOG… STORIES IN THEMSELVES- I think it gave an intriguing start for the story.. there were a couple places where i felt it could have been less monotonous in the story line but the end was done well. But truly for once in a long time my attention was truly tuned in and the narrator did a great job.

Memories of my youth
Love rereading books I read so very many years ago. Reminds me of where I was and who I was when I first read Phyllis A. Whitney's books.
Anna Fields is one of my favorite narrators!
