the house of a thousand candles
Author: Meredith Nicholson
Editor: D.S. Martin
A Mystery/Thriller NOvel
Wealthy John Glenarm died and left his estate to his namesake grandson - called Jack- with certain stipulations for its use. As Jack attempted to enjoy possession of the land and unfinished house with untold secrets, sinister forces with deadly intent conspired against him to deprive him of the inheritance.
If that wasn't enough of a mystery to him, the neighboring private school for young ladies housed an intriguing and beautiful young woman who wrecked havoc with Jack's emotions. Being a long time family friend of old Mr. Glenarm, she was a major influence in the inheritance transition.
After years of drifting since college, Jack enlists the aid of friends to prove his worth in securing the property and pursues the intriguing Marian Devereux.
