Annie has always felt unwanted.  She was abandoned by her mother as a baby and was raised in an orphanage, where she was never adopted. So she is shocked when she applies to be a mail order bride and the wealthy Dr. Patrick Barlow chooses her.  The two quickly fall in love, but Patrick's past mars their happiness.  What happened to Patrick's first wife?  Did he kill her, as some neighbors have implied?  And what is he hiding behind the locked door at the end of the hallway?This short story was a cross between a Mail Order Bride and a Gothic style "Rebecca".  There was really no love story.  The focus was on the mystery surrounding the first wife's death.  It was an OK read for free, but not worth $1.99 in my opinion.
