About the book

Old House of Fear

Attorney Hugh Logan leaves Canada to negotiate the purchase of Carnglass Island and Old House of Fear in the Hebrides for his employer, Duncan MacAskival. From the moment he arrives in Scotland, Logan is thwarted and threatened on his journey. But no matter how bad his travels, his arrival on the island proves trouble has just begun.

Only escaping Jackmans terrible clutches through the assistance of lovely, red-haired Mary MacAskival, niece of the bedridden owner of Old House, Logan must find a way to thwart Jackman's evil plot before he and his newfound love both perish on the isolated island.
