A Haunting in the French Quarter (A Novel)

De: Jo Anna, Jo Ann Gray

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

The Atcheson-Barnes Manor stands at the edge of New Orleans’ French Quarter… a house of roses and butterflies, of whispers and sorrow. Two centuries ago, Elizabeth Atcheson was struck down by her fiancé, Victor Collins, in a storm of betrayal and rage. Her ghost never left…
When novelist, JoyAnna Blackenship inherits the Manor generations later, she finds Elizabeth’s diary and begins to write her tragic tale. But the more JoyAnna writes, the more she feels the ghost’s mere presence… her eyes in the halls, roses blooming overnight, the music of a phantom waltz... Elizabeth appears not as a monster, but as a sorrowful bride, desperate to be remembered, desperate to be loved…
Haunting turns to seduction. JoyAnna finds herself bound to Elizabeth’s beauty, her grief, her need. But as visions deepen, the truth of Elizabeth’s death surfaces… such rage, accusation, and Victor’s despair. Still, truth is powerless against love that is this consuming…
JoyAnna slips further, until she is no longer sure where she ends and Elizabeth begins... And on quiet nights, when the moon is full, passersby still see a figure in the manor’s top window… perhaps JoyAnna, perhaps Elizabeth, perhaps both…
A bride unfinished. A bride eternal…
