Haunted Woman

fiction, arts, books · EN

Isabel Loment is engaged to the caring yet emotionally distant Marshall Stokes. While searching for a home for her aunt, she stumbles upon Runhill Court, an ancient estate harboring a staircase that only reveals itself to those with a discerning eye. When Isabel ascends this staircase, she encounters Henry Judge, the enigmatic owner of the court, and a passionate connection ignites between them. However, upon descending, they find that the memories of their encounter vanish, leaving them to navigate the complexities of their everyday lives. The Haunted Woman represents Lindsays effort to craft a more commercially appealing novel than her earlier fantasy work, A Voyage to Arcturus. Though neither book achieved immediate success, both have since garnered a devoted following, with The Haunted Woman being reprinted as the fourth installment of the esteemed Newcastle Forgotten Fantasy Library.
