title: Matravers Hall
author: Kellier, Elizabeth
description: Julia Maine was shocked to learn of the sudden death of Gaiety Harrington, her old school friend. Happily married to Nicholas Harrington, Gaiety had never seemed the suicidal type.
  
  Now, forced to pay a condolence visit to the family at Matravers Hall, Julia was plunged into an atmosphere of fear and suspicion. Apprehensive in the gloom of the great cliffside house, Julia was disturbed by the silence with which Nicholas treated his wife's death - and by her own awakening interest in him.
  
  As the days of her visit lengthened, Julia determined to seek out the malevolent force that had destroyed the young bride - fearfully aware, that she, too, might be its victim.
