The House That Death Built: A Gothic Tale of Suspense and Romance

By Mel Stone

A would-be spinster. A dashing stranger. And a secret that will bind them forever...

Joy Horton is comfortable and content in her job as village seamstress. She lives a simple life with her family and is determined never to marry, for fear of passing on her strange handicap to any offspring.

When the brash and impulsive Arthur Marco steps into her little shop for a repair, he immediately brings color and chaos into Joy's ordered life. Their exchanges are spirited and flirtatious, but while Joy hasn't changed her mind about marriage, Arthur is certain she will bring him happiness.

Arthur has already lived a life of sorrow. After all, he's already buried a wife under what some consider to be suspicious circumstances. But after so much misery, doesn't a man deserve to be happy?

As Arthur's past comes to light, Joy realizes a union could spell disaster for them both. Are his intentions as simple as they seem? Or is Joy unwittingly playing a part in a more sinister plan?

It seems Arthur will do anything to keep Joy away from his family's legacy of death.

Anything but stay away from her.

The House That Death Built is a thrilling fantasy-romance novel that will have readers turning pages at a breathless pace.
