A turmoil of emotions! In 1870 Lady Clare Duncan is in love with Barnabas Collins. Or is it only pity? The intrepid Lady Clare travels from London to Mont St. Michel to Maine in an effort to find Barnabas and get him some kind of help for his "affliction." Will she have any success? Breezy and entertaining time passer that most Dark Shadows fans should enjoy. Some nice gothic chills in this one and Lady Clare is a delightful heroine.

The secret is out!!! Kinda felt like I reread the last book, just the names and the dates were changed to protect the innocent

Marginally entertaining, if slight, novel about a chapter of the history of Barnabas Collins. This series was more successful before Barnabas's arrival, when the focus was on Victoria Winters and a sort of alternate timeline to what happened on the tv series. Earlier novels had continuing characters. At this point, each novel is essentially standalone and not as compelling.
