Bride by Candlelight) (German)

Heiser Mittag / Krahenrufe / Der Drohbrief - An Afternoon Walk / Whistle for the Crows / Bride by Candlelight - German
Author: Dorothy Eden, Elisabeth Epple (Translator)

HEISER MITTAGE (An Afternoon Walk) — On a leisurely afternoon walk one summer day Ella and her five-year-old daughter come upon an abandoned house with an eerie overgrown garden. For the attractive young housewife and her imaginative child, the old house conjures up fantasies of grand parties and bygone fashions. But in the midst... more » of the reverie they hear a horrible, throaty scream and, from a second-story window, see the spreading white wings of an owl taking flight.

At home that evening, Ella describes the experience to her husband, Max, only to be reminded that, having recently lost a child at birth, she is still emotionally unstable. Later, pointing out her strange lapses of memory, he insists that she needs more quiet and rest. Ella reluctantly agrees with him and all but forgets the experience, even though she feels it is somehow connected with the sudden disappearance of a woman in the neighborhood.

Then she begins receiving a series of anonymous phone calls. Trapped between the cold neglect of her husband, who openly questions her sanity, and the increasing terror of the calls, which hint that her child is in danger, Ella herself comes to question her own sanity...

KRAHENRUFE (Whistle for the Crows)

The job of tracing the ancestral tree of the mystery-shrouded O'Riordan family at first fascinates beautiful, young Cathleen Lamb. But the past, she soon discovers, is entangled with the present in a delicate but deadly web of violence and suspicion.

Isolated in a gloomy castle on the edge of a moor, Cathleen finds that the secrets she uncovers have drawn her into a swirling vortex of smoldering hates and strange relationships that threaten her very existence. Yet despite the malice surrounding her, she is helplessly drawn to the brooding, darkly passionate man who is plotting to control the family -- a man who will stop at nothing if Cathleen, or anyone, stands in his way.

DER DROHBRIEF (Bride by Candlelight)

Julia had gone all the way to New Zealand to marry Paul Blaine before she realized she was caught in a web of evil and hidden violence. There was something different about Paul, something that frightened and disturbed her -- all centering around his dead brother Harry. There was a strangeness about his family too, and about Dave Macauley -- who couldn't have been the sheepherder they said he was, and who seemed inordinately anxious to send Julia home.

And then "things" began to happen -- threatening notes slipped under her door, eerie sounds she couldn't identify, little "accidents" that weren't really accidents...

There were questions Julia couldn't answer -- until the night she found herself alone in an empty house, knowing that Death would soon be riding side by side with Dawn...
