About this eBook
“Superbly written . . . There is more than one terrific twist and the clever cliff-hanger chapter-endings will keep you compulsively turning the pages.” —Daily Mail
Hollywood, 1978
Tragedy sends troubled film star Vivien Lockhart into the arms of Giovanni Moretti—and it seems her fortunes have finally changed. Until she meets his sister and learns that her new husband’s past holds dark secrets . . .
Tuscany, Present day
Lucy Whittaker needs to disappear. But her new home, the crumbling Castillo Barbarossa, is far from the secluded paradise it seemed. Strange sounds come from the attic. The owner of the house will never meet her in person.
The fountain in the courtyard is silent—but has never run dry.
Across the decades, Vivien and Lucy find themselves trapped in the idyllic Italian villa.
And if they are ever to truly escape its walls, they must first unearth its secrets . . .
“This gothic-like Romance is atmospheric and oh-so readable.” —The Sun on Sunday

“Will keep you enthralled . . . A story of mystery and past secrets certain to keep you guessing to the very end.” —The People’s Friend
