Lord Strathcairn takes her to Cairn Castle where she stays the night. The following day she is shocked and horrified when she sees an eviction of crofters taking place on the Duke’s estate. At the huge, gaunt Ardness Castle she finds a superficial kindness, but beneath something sinister and terrifying. How Leona falls in love with Lord Strathcairn, how she learns the ghastly secret of the Glen, and how she encounters inevitable dangers is told in this 183rd book by Barbara Cartland.
