Synopsis

A birthday party with a surprise gift of sudden death...
From the moment that Rachel Lord joined the celebration at Roshven, she was enveloped in an aura of impending doom. The house seemed to have evil built into its very foundations, and yet it made a perfect setting for surly, darkly handsome Daniel Carey, to whom Rachel was strongly and unwillingly drawn.
Unable to sleep, Rachel heard voices not meant for her ears, and with mounting horror realized that she had become a threat to the safety of someone in that strange, nightmare house-- someone who would stop at nothing to eliminate the threat.
Was that someone Daniel Carey? Was it really concern for her safety that kept him by her side, or was he merely biding his time, waiting for a convenient moment to destroy her?
