As Ellen reads, she becomes increasingly embroiled in the fascinating story of her life. Who is the enigmatic and seductive Count her great-grandmother was supposed to marry? And why is it that Ellen and her great-grandmother resemble each other so much that they could be twins? But Ellen's condition is worsening, and it's becoming more and more difficult for her to distinguish her own life from the nightmarish events recorded in the diaries. Is the past destroying her, or do the diaries hold the key to Ellen's survival...? Praise for previous Celia Rees releases from Bolinda Audio: Shirley Barthelmie's pleasant, even tones provide a strong narration for this chilling story of urban legends that become reality.' - AudioFile Magazine
