AbstractHistoryArchive Description

When a young woman's ex-lover refuses to help her escape her elderly miser husband in his wagon she prophesises that there will be blood of her hands. But she is the one murdered and her ghost, her ex-lover's dream, and a simple farm hand's suspicion point to her husband - who is himself found dead of fright. (PB)
