Victorine Ellsworth knows something about the death of the vicar's wife...but what? Is she the killer? Or the next victim? GOTHIC SPRING is a journey into a mind that is unraveling. Victorine is a young woman poised at the edge of sexual awakening and cursed with more talent and imagination than society will tolerate. The conflict between her desire and the restrictions that rule her life lead to tragic circumstances. "GOTHIC SPRING'S vivid and intimate prose skillfully ushers you into another time, place and soul, only to trap you there until the very last word." - S. L. Stoner, author, Sage Adair Historical Mysteries
