Eagen’s Castle, rising massive, somber, and foreboding from the New Mexican earth, was to be Leah Taylor’s new home. Fragile, blonde Leah, orphaned at an early age and now widowed at twenty-three, had nothing left to keep her in Virginia. So when the invitation came from her late husband’s wealthy uncle, Eric Eagen, to join him in his estate outside Albuquerque, she quickly accepted. But when she arrived, it was to the news that Eric Eagen had died suddenly, leaving her as his heir. So now she was to possess Eagen’s Castle, its rooms haunted by unfulfilled dreams and perished hopes and watched over by Pablita, the mysterious house keeper who was also the keeper of the Eagen secrets. But was Leah to possess the castle, or was it already possessed by La Llorona, the ghost of a long-dead murderess who wailed at night for her dead children while searching for new victims? As the days passed, Leah came to realize that the threat was very real–but was it a ghostly vengeance or a human one behind the strange occurences that had come to make her fear for her sanity–and her life? Whom could she turn to for help? Could she trust Antonio Ramirez, the darkly handsome overseer, to whom she found herself strangely drawn? Or should she trust Tom Howard, old Eric Eagen’s distinguished lawyer, who offered a willing shoulder for her to lean on, but who carefully avoided all of her questions about the estate?
