No doubt the castle was in<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">mourning. Black banners flew from the squat towers alongside the duke\u2019s<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">pennon. And the severe facade of the keep\u2019s entry tower, broken only by the<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">tall, narrow glass windows near its crown, was draped with myrtle branches,<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">wound and tied with black crepe. But for all the activity I could see, one might<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">think the entire household dead instead of just the lord. <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre3\"><b class=\"calibre2\">   At last, almost a quarter of an hour after we\u2019d driven through the unguarded<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">outer gates, one of the massive doors was dragged open. A red-faced under-housemaid carrying a water pitcher on her shoulder gestured frantically and<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">disappeared into the house, leaving the door ajar. <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre3\"><b class=\"calibre2\">   Renald hurried back across the courtyard to the carriage, scratching his<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">head. \u201cThe girl says you\u2019re to go right up to her mistress\u2019 rooms. She didn\u2019t<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">even wait to hear my introduction.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre3\"><b class=\"calibre2\">   \u201cHow could they know I was coming today?\u201d Not waiting for Renald\u2019s hand,<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">I jumped from the carriage and directed him to the kitchen wing where he<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">might get refreshment and perhaps a bit of gossip. I ran up the broad steps. <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre3\"><b class=\"calibre2\">Thirteen years since I\u2019d been banished from this house\u2014<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre3\"><b class=\"calibre2\">   A blood-chilling wail from the upper floor precluded reminiscing, as well as<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">any puzzling over the lack of proper guards at the gates of a wealthy house<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">with a newly dead lord. Hurrying across the tiled floor of the entry tower and<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">up the grand staircase, I followed the commotion through a set of double<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">doors at the end of the passage and into a grand bedchamber. <\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr style='margin: 30px 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;'>\n<p style='text-align:center;'>Read the full book by downloading it below.<\/p>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/epub-book.com\/download\/download-is-starting\/?url=https%3A\/\/mega.co.nz\/%23%21kkx0mboT%21in43XHUX5GkN227NwGr-6Cl9SoqlMIT7DFNFWyc-XjY' class='download-btn' target='_blank'>DOWNLOAD EPUB<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Book Preview My driver rang the bell for the third time.
