description: "The ruby ring - the blood and the tears -- will bring the family back together." — The letter was a godsend. After struggling for so long to make ends meet as a music teacher, Emily Woodstock was astonished to learn that she was the closest living relative of Sir Ralph Woodstock. Suddenly, poor and lonely Emily was a member of a wealthy family, with Edgecliff Manor as her new home. It was all she had ever dreamed, and upon first meeting her handsome cousin Richard, she wondered if she might find riches of the heart as well. But when the death of her uncle left Emily the sole heir to his vast fortune, her dream was shattered for she was certain that someone was out to kill her.Surely it wasn't her charming cousin Charles or their lovely, yet aloof, neighbor Evonne DeVere. And even the grim-faced housekeeper did not seem capable of murder. That left only Richard, of dark mind and brooding spirit, the man to whom Emily had given her heart. Would he take her life, as well?(Out of Print)
