Title: This one was a disappointment
Review: I love this author, whether she is writing under the name "Barbara Michaels" or "Elizabeth Peters", but this novel was a disappointment to me. It is a gothic mystery. Carla is a young American who suddenly finds herself the sole heiress for a Cornish mansion. No money comes with the deal, so she is going to have to sell it, but why not vacation there for a few weeks first? Well, it's a haunted, ancient mansion. And there is a legend that a young woman disappears, supposedly taken as a bride by a water monster, every two hundred years. And Carla is the next intended victim. Interesting story line, but in my view, a very unsatisfactory ending. And it all just doesn't fit as neatly together as her stories usually do.
