Classics. First published in 1956, this haunting novel of suspense and romance set in the Scottish Hebrides blends pungent description with sheer terror as only Mary Stewart can. Most visitors to the Isle of Skye are there to climb the jagged peaks of Blaven or fish the many sparkling streams, but Gianetta Brooke came to forget Nicholas Drury--the husband she had painfully divorced. Upon arrival, however, Gianetta realizes that this won't be a typical vacation when she discovers that Nicholas is numbered among the guests at the small inn. Then, upon the treacherous slopes of Blaven, a murder is committed, and although Gianetta missed the first act of an eerie, unearthly crime, the murderer is set to strike again and again before a thrilling finale that pits Gianetta face-to-face with a madman.

Work Description
Lovely, successful fashion model Gianetta Brooke is on the verge of a breakdown when her boss sends her away for a month of complete rest and quiet. A remote hotel in the Hebrides, favored by climbers and anglers rather than the smart set, seems like just the ticket.
If only there hadn't been a gruesome murder there. If only Gianetta's ex-husband Nick hadn't showed up.
If only Gianetta hadn't stumbled across a key piece of evidence that seems to point right at Nick...
