Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Sorrow and trouble and bitterness will hound you and yours and the children of yours...
Some said the dying words of Nial Lynn, murdered by his own son, were a wicked curse. To others, it was a winter's tale spun by firelight on cold, dark nights. But when Corbet Lynn came to rebuild his family estate, memories of his grandfather's curse were rekindled by young and old--and rumors filled the heavy air of summer. In the woods that border Lynn Hall, free-spirited Rois Melior roams wild and barefooted. And as autumn gold fades, she is consumed with Corbet Lynn, obsessed with his secret past...
A fantasy novel on a girl who roams the grounds of an abandoned mansion, then meets a young man, come to claim the estate. Together they are drawn into a curse which hangs over the place.
