GOTHIC SUSPENSE!Gad's Hall+Haunting of Gad's Hall, Oct 20 2003
THIS IS A GOTHIC SUSPENSE NOVELFrom inside the DJ liner: In the splendid tradition of such previous best sellers as The Town House and The House at Old Vine , Norajh Lofts has written two masterful new novels- now combined in this special 2-in-1 volume for members only. For Jill and Bob Spender and their three children, the charming Tudor farmhouse had seemed a godsend an incredible bargain, almost a gift from its owner- a kindly man who merely wanted someone to protect the family homestead , to make Gad's Hall come alive again. And it did. But a door had been opened into the past. And soon a strong-willed, sensible woman would be overtaken by irrational feelings she could not control... and a young child would be transformed by fear. Why was this happening?Why was there this vague feeling of uneasiness about the house? In order to protect her family- to preserve their life together.- Jill knew she must discover the reason...Little did she realize that the sinister influence was rooted deep in the past, the result of an unspeakable secret harbored by the women who lived at Gad's Hall more than a century ago. The consequences of this hidden evil ultimately cast a supernatural menace over the house- a curse whose power would remain undiminished in the 20th century life of Jill Spender... This 2-in-1 volumer holds a novel within a novel. It is the absorbing sotry of a moden woman seeking to rid her beloved home of dread, and a rich historical portrait of the amazing women who proceeded her. Gad's Hall and The Haunting of Gad's hall are a perfect blending of Norah Loft's superior talents as a writer of historical and romantic suspense novels as well as an extraordinary tale- spinner of the supernatural.
