Mexican Gothic

"After receiving a frantic letter from her newly-wed cousin begging for someone to save her from a mysterious doom, Noemâi Taboada heads to High Place, a distant house in the Mexican countryside. She's not sure what she will find -- her cousin's husband, a handsome Englishman, is a stranger. Her only ally in this inhospitable abode is the family's youngest son. Shy and gentle, he seems to want to help Noemâi, but might also be hiding dark knowledge of his family's past. For there are many secrets behind the walls of High Place. Noemâi, mesmerized by the terrifying yet seductive world of High Place, may soon find it impossible to ever leave this enigmatic house behind."--Publisher description.
