The Ghost Bride

Can new love break the curse of an old enmity? England 1867
A chance meeting on a train by travel writer Jemima Douglas and historian Dr. Monty Rhodes is more than fortuitous - it is fated. Bound for the same small village in Devon, Jemima and Monty discover that an old church and an even more ancient castle are entwined in a mystery that spans centuries: whatever happened to Isabeau de Bois, the Tudor bride who disappeared on the eve of her wedding? Villagers say the mysterious figure which appears in the castle and the village is the Ghost Bride who beseeches lovers to try to uncover her final resting place. As Monty and Jemima are drawn deeper into the tale, hearts and lives are in danger.
