Free (Kindle) Door Into Terror by Juanita Coulson [Vintage Gothic Mystery/Horror]

[ATDrake]

Door Into Terror by noted filksinger Juanita Coulson (ISFDB, Wikipedia) is her vintage contemporary gothic mystery/suspense with apparently also supernatural horror elements (ISFDB is a bit fuzzy on how much sfnal content they consider to be in this one since the blurbed ghosts may only be imaginary, but the Amazon categories seem to file it there), free courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press's Venture imprint, who are e-printing it from its original 1972 Berkley Medallion paperback.

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and probably pretty much everywhere else they sell worldwide, since this is being done via the KDP Select exclusive-or-else program)

And this has been the (late!) selected 3rd (non-repeat) free ebook thread of the day.

Because it's nice that Venture is offering us even more backlist freebies from established sfnal authors, and even though I'd have personally preferred one of her more overtly sfnal works in a different subgenre, it's still a treat to be able to stretch out into more obscure areas of an author's backlist to try, so

Enjoy!

Description
The Door of Death…

What lies beyond?


Tamara Powell wouldn’t know what awaited her on Marteau Island when she arrived to tutor her old friend’s son.

The locals are wary of her presence on the Island, regarding her with strict and suspicious caution.

Felicia had been insistent, and now seemed distraught. Obviously, she needed comfort … or was it protection?

Who or what lay behind the evil that boldly stalked the remote mansion? Was it Vincent — Felicia’s aloof and strangely enigmatic husband, or Mordecai, the cold and austere family patriarch, who held them suspended before his whims?

Or was it in the very air of the Door of Death, in the ghosts of an unforgotten past?

There can be no answer to the endless questions that surround this mysterious, chilling mansion.

Some secrets, or curses, are perhaps too dangerous to share...

Tamara soon realises that escaping the Island is no easy task and a strange force is trying to guide her to the truth. Someone, or something, is mercilessly seeking revenge and the haunting sound of death insists on being heard…

Door Into Terror is a chilling horror story from renowned author Juanita Coulson, best known for her science fiction Children of the Stars series.
