Here is the blurb from the back cover:
From the moment Nora arrives at Sir Mark Gerrick's estate, she constantly seems to confront dangers she doesn't really understand ...
"I found myself on it ledge looking down into a pool of unimpressive dimensions with a surface still as glass.
"The villagers never come here at night, Sir Mark said softly at my elbow They say a spirit lives in its depths and is heard to speak on occasion. It speaks theof the name next person in the neighborhood who will die.'
"A soft ripple of fear caressed my shoulders, and I became aware of Sir Mark standing behind me, not touching but enexorably baring my retreat The center of the pool held me spellbound and I found I could not tear my eyes from those black, stagnant depths that mirrored my white, terrified face.
"Suddenly, the surface rippled, its if words were trying to float to the surface 'Nora Woburn, they said, and I knew I would be the next to to die."
Below is the blurb from the dust jacket:
A compelling tale of romantic suspense set in Victorian England, The Artist's Daughter moves from the bohemian London of famous artists and writers to the stark and threatening countryside near Dartmoor.
Nora Woburn, daughter of the well-known painter Ivor Stokes, never dreamed what her future held when in 1860 she married the handsome, charming, and seemingly loving Oliver Woburn. Three years, numerous brutal beatings, and a miscarriage later, this spunky young woman, once the special friend of poets and painters like Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Morris, finds herself lonely, disinherited, and desperate. Pursued by her cruel husband, Nora escapes to Devonshire. There she finds employment at Raven's Chase, the vast estate of Sir Mark Gerrick, a man who seems to be haunted by his past. Her discovery of a long-lost portrait of herself leads her into new and far more serious danger. As Nora begins to learn of the depraved, violent underside of Victorian England's cultured facade, she must brave a deadly conspiracy that threatens to destroy both her and those she loves.,
