Perdition House

From Charleston To Hilton Head, Family Matters...And Murder Is Relative. <BR>When a fifth cousin twice removed calls Bay Tanner - a young, recently widowed, financial consultant - from the Beaufort County Jail, it 's no accident. Mercer Mary Prescott spent a lot of time and trouble locating Bay on the family tree, and she needs more than bail out of the relationship. What she 's really after is a secret she 's not willing to reveal-yet. But when Bay generously takes Mercer back to the family mansion of Presqu 'isle, she finds that this distant kin comes with a lot of personal baggage-and some very dangerous pursuers. Before Bay can help straighten out Mercer 's problems, the mousy young woman disappears. Now, Bay begins a desperate hunt for her "shirttail " cousin through the twisted alleys of the past, from Civil War days to a plantation called Perdition House and to one last deadly fight. <BR> "The suspense ratchets up periodically, the characters are well drawn and unique, and the writing evokes the new South without resorting to stereotype. Best of all, Bay makes a believable and appealing protagonist. " - "The Cleveland Plain Dealer <BR> "The finely spun plot makes Bay 's latest a taut, tasty chiller. " - "Kirkus Reviews <BR>www.minotaurbooks.com <BR>.
