Curse This House

When her mother died, Leyla's only links with her heritage and family were a letter and a name—Pemberton. Resolved to seek out her past, Leyla travelled from London to the brooding mansion of Pemberton Hurst. Here she hoped to find a loving family and to unlock her mind, for she could remember nothing of her first five years of her life, spent under that very roof. Instead, she became the focus of dark secrets. Her heart torn between her sophisticated fiance in London and a new, dangerous love, she did not know whom to trust. Then terror struck, for it seemed a murderer roamed the corridors of Pemberton Hurst.
