The Secret of the Priory
The Priory stood isolated, overlooking the sea. From the moment Julie Morrow saw it, she felt a shiver of apprehension. Mark, her fiance, had brought her here to recover from a serious illness, but it was clear from the first that there was much he had not told Julie about this grim, castle-like mansion.

Why did Mark make Julie swear to stay out of the locked portion of the house? Why did the housekeeper, Mrs. Daniels, treat her like a virtual prisoner? Why did Mark's best friend, Dr. Allan Martin, keep urging Julie to leave, even as he wove a disquieting romantic spell around her? The legend of an ancient curse ... the sinister specter of a woman bending over Julie's bed ... the dizzying kisses of a man whom Julie knew she should not love... all were part of the circle of horror closing in upon the terrified bride-to-be, trapped and pursued by a nameless evil that did not want her to escape.
