Anne de Barrigan is a young woman in France who is married to the strong, jealous Yves de Cornault and lives at the grand Kerfol estate.

When Yves is mysteriously murdered, Anne is questioned. However, the marks on Yves show that he had to have been murdered by dogs, but there are no dogs at Kerfol.

Kerfol seems to be haunted through many generations, as each chapter goes to a different time period in history, ending at the present time.

Deborah Noyes writes an interesting book based off of the ghost story by Edith Wharton. Noyes creates characters in each time era that tells a little more of a great story.

The weird happenings at Kerfol are sure to give chills to any reader.
