Robert Ross Never Look Back
Pinnacle 20050501 0786015853 / 9780786015856 MM Very Good
0786015853 0786015853 Product Description Karen Donovan no sooner marries bestselling novelist Philip Kaye when he leaves on a book tour, abandoning her at his Provincetown mansion with his sullen teenage daughter. Black-clad Jessie Kaye isn't exactly good company: when she's not skulking around, she's locked in her room writing in her journal, and her strangeness is a topic of local gossip...As autumn sets in, Karen befriends flamboyant local celebrity Bobbie Noble. But their plans to renovate Philip's house are sidetracked when Karen stumbles upon the diary of accused axe-murderess Lettie Hatch. It describes Lettie's boorish father and young, ambitious stepmother - both of whom would fall victim to a crazed killer. And the more Karen reads, the more she's convinced that Jessie, with her increasingly bizarre behaviour, is channelling something sinister...When Philip returns, he's in no mood to entertain the theories that have grown into a nerve-jangling obsession for Karen. Now, as a bitter winter binds the Cape in snow and ice, Karen feels a presence taking over. It knows what happened here nearly a hundred years before. And it won't stop until history is rewritten - in blood.

Robert Ross Where Darkness Lives
Pinnacle 2002 0786014814 / 9780786014811 Paperback Very Good
0786014814 0786014814 From Publishers Weekly Since Kate Colson was institutionalized at the age of 12 for claiming to see ghosts, she has learned to keep mum about her supernatural abilities. She certainly hasn't told her new hubby, handsome financier Russell Wright, whom she met and married in a matter of weeks. But when Russell's enigmatic twin sister returns from her travels in Europe and persuades him to visit his ailing Aunt in Wrightsbridge, his family's Connecticut estate, she fears she may have to come clean. Before leaving, spirits warn Kate and her friend Erik, a writer of books on the paranormal, that she should not enter "the house," but Kate, eager to connect with her husband and learn about his past, does anyway. It isn't long before she realizes that Russell's childhood home harbors many secrets and one very vengeful spirit. When Kate starts experiencing blackouts and growing physically weak, she finds herself struggling for more than just her sanity. Ross's debut borrows heavily from Jane Eyre and Psycho, but the familiarity of this tale won't keep readers from shivering at the chilling portrait the author paints of Wrightsbridge and Russell's childhood. The story's primary handicap is Kate, who is so blinded by love she often fails to see the obvious. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
