Description

It's a find of inestimable worth for Karen Holloway. The manuscript she keeps in her hand—written in the nineteenth-century and showing the mystical attribution "Ismene"—could show a benefit for the keen young English teacher's profession. But Karen's look for the writer's true personality is holding her in to the grey shadows of yesteryear, to locations fraught with horror and risk. For the deeper she goes into Ismeneis unusual history of old terror, the more she's haunted by the feeling that the long-deceased writer was publishing the reality.
