Bride of a Stranger

About Specification

Claire is too innocent to suspect that her marriage is a cruel farce,

believing instead that the dangerous accidents that keep appearing in her

path are just that?accidents.

She wedded Justin Leroux suddenly and silently. He was the tall dark

stranger of her girlhood dreams, and had finally come to take her away.

She returns with him to Sans Songe, the Leroux family plantation in

Louisiana. A near-fatal accident on the road to the plantation does not

bode well for her future there. And indeed, many nasty surprises await

her at the plantation itself. Voodoo magic, poisoned food, and a murder

mystery force Claire into a stalemate. She is helpless within the bosom

of her frigid and isolating new family, while her husband has yet to come

to her bed. He may even be hoping for her destruction, as she is drawn

into an ever more tangled web of passion and intrigue...
