It’s there that he meets the seductive, beautiful Katya Treville. Jean-Marc is bewitched, driven to know everything about her. But as he and her family become friendly, he realizes they are haunted by an old, darksecret.
When Jean-Marc learns that the Trevilles are planning to leave the villageforever, he insists on a final meeting with Katya. That meeting and the events thatfollow turn what was an idyllic romance into an unending nightmare. And when Katya’s secretis revealed, the chilling climax will stay with the reader long after the last page is turned.
