In Kate Danley's deliciously twisted story, A Spirited Mar, grieving widow Clara O'Hare accepts an invitation to a seance in the remote country home of Lord Horace Oroberg. Joining her around the table are Oroberg's cad of a son, Clifford; his mousy fiancee, Violet; her overbearing mother, Hilda Nero; Norman Scettico, a rewned scientist; the lovely Marguerite Matson; and the dashing young medium, Wesley Lowenherz. Before long, the group's fascination with the spirit world calls up something sinister, and Clara and Wesley are pulled together to solve a murder most foul. Laced with gothic tension, romance, and mystery, A Spirited Mar will delight readers with its unexpected turns and thrilling conclusion.
