New York:: Meredith Press, , (1968). Hardcover first edition -. Fine in blue cloth in a very near fine dust jacket.. First printing. The third novel written by Mertz using this pseudonym (she is best known for the Amelia Peabody series written under the name of Elizabeth Peters). A gothic tale set in 1960s Georgetown, where Ruth Bennett has inherited an old family house and is hoping to recover from the death of her husband there. However, her peace is broken when her niece Sara arrives and she finds herself confronted by a spirit that inhabits her niece's body. 252 pp.
Sinopsis
It begins as a lark -- a harmless diversion initiated by Washington, D.C., hostess Ruth Bennett as a means of entertaining her visiting niece, Sara. But the seance conducted in Ruth's elegant Georgetown home calls something back; something unwelcome ... and palpably evil. Suddenly Sara is speaking in a voice not her own, transformed into a miserable, whimpering creature so unlike her normal, sensible self. No tricks or talismans will dispel the malevolence that now plagues the inhabitants of this haunted place -- until a dark history of treachery, lust, and violence is exposed. But the cost might well be the sanity and the lives of the living.
