About this ebook
Emmalynn Rogers remembers nothing of the night her wealthy employer was brutally murdered—and she was the only witness. A fisherman was arrested for the crime, but he died in prison before he could be brought to trial, swearing his innocence with his last breath. And if he didn’t kill Henrietta Stern, who did?
When a surprising bequest makes Emmalynn the owner of Henrietta’s dilapidated Brighton estate, she decides it’s time to learn the truth about that tragic night. She finds herself caught between three men: Boyd Devlon, the house’s charming caretaker; Gordon Stuart, Henrietta’s rakish brother; and George Reed, who won’t rest until he clears his father’s name. But only two people know who murdered Henrietta—Emmalynn and a killer who will strike again when Emmalynn remembers.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Jennifer Wilde was one of my favorite writers of historical romance back in the 70s-80s. So when I had an opportunity to read a Jennifer Wilde book I jumped at it. Jennifer Wilde was actually a pseudonym for T.E. Huff, an man who wrote under a number of female pseudonyms and in fact when this books was first published in 1970, it was under another of his pseudonyms, Edwina Marlow.
This often reads like something written in 1970 - the language, the clothes, the overall feel of the book all took me back. For me it was obvious that this was the case, and I enjoyed the nostalgia aspect that it gave the book. For younger readers, that may well translate simply to “dated”, and be offputting. But personally, I enjoyed the mystery and the tension of never being quite sure about the characters who surrounded Emmalynn. It won’t be for everyone, but I quite enjoyed this one.
