Product Description

It begins as a lark -- a harmless diversion initiated by Washington, D.C., hostess Ruth Bennett as a means of entertaining her visiting niece, Sara. But the séance conducted in Ruth's elegant Georgetown home calls something back; something unwelcome ... and palpably evil. Suddenly Sara is speaking in a voice not her own, transformed into a miserable, whimpering creature so unlike her normal, sensible self. No tricks or talismans will dispel the malevolence that now plagues the inhabitants of this haunted place -- until a dark history of treachery, lust, and violence is exposed. But the cost might well be the sanity and the lives of the living.

--This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

Ingram

For the guests at Ruth Bennet's fashionable Georgetwon home, the seance was just a playful diversion . . . until Ruth's niece Sara spoke in a deep guttural voice not her own . . . and the game became frighteningly real.. The New York Times calls Miss Michaels a specialist, saying, "When the seances get going and the ghosts walk (and talk), even the nonbelievers take notice." Previously published in 1969 by Fawcett. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic supernatural mystery, Nov 22 2003

By	"itzyu2" (Virginia USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ammie Come Home (Paperback)

Barbara Michaels is a master, and this book is one of her finest.

Ruth Bennett invites her niece Sara to stay at her historic Georgetown house. Starting with a seance, the past apears to manifest through Sara. Is she going mad, or is it something else? Sara's boyfriend Bruce leads an investigation into the house's history - and finds the key to understanding what is happening to, and through, Sara.

This is a classic ghost story, that I have read and reread over the years. Very enjoyable book.
