Spotlighting Jaime Jo Wright's The Vanishing at Castle Moreau

 


I missed the boat on posting for this blog tour,  I didn't finish the book either.  I could make all the excuses in the world, but I won't.  I'll just say that due to personal reasons I messed up.  Instead, I am posting a spotlight with a review to come in the near future.


I love the cover.  It captures my eye and imagination.  The mystery vibe is intriguing.


BOOK DESCRIPTION

A haunting legend. An ominous curse. A search for a secret buried deep within the castle walls.

In 1870, orphaned Daisy François takes a position as a housemaid at a Wisconsin castle to

escape the horrors of her past life. There she finds a reclusive and eccentric Gothic

authoress who hides tales more harrowing than the ones in her novels. As women disappear

from the area and the eerie circumstances seem to parallel a local legend, Daisy is thrust into

a web that could ultimately steal her sanity, if not her life.

In the present day, Cleo Clemmons is hired by the grandson of an American aristocratic family

to help his grandmother face her hoarding in the dilapidated Castle Moreau. But when Cleo

uncovers more than just the woman's stash of collectibles, a century-old mystery and the dust

of the old castle's curse threaten to rise again . . . this time to leave no one alive to tell the

sordid tale.

Award-winning author Jaime Jo Wright seamlessly weaves a dual-time tale of two women who

must do all they can to seek the light amid the darkness shrouding Castle Moreau.
