Hester Durant accepted the proposal of a stranger, the Earl of Grey Cliffs, because he promised to provide for her if she would care for his troubled son. Mostly she agreed because of his anguished eyes. But on arrival at her new home she discovered eccentric relatives and a mystery surrounding the death of Edward’s father. Was there a killer at the castle?
