Mexican Gothic e-bog

He is trying to poison me. You must come for me, Noem . You have to save me.When socialite Noem Taboada receives a frantic letter from her newlywed cousin begging to be rescued from a mysterious doom, she immediately heads to High Place, a remote mansion in the Mexican countryside, determined to discover what is so affecting her cousin. Catalina has always had a flair for the dramatic, but her claims that her husband is poisoning her and her visions of restless ghosts seem remarkable, even for her.Tough and smart, Noem possesses an indomitable will, and she is not afraid: not of her cousin's new husband, who is both menacing and alluring; not of his father, the ancient patriarch who seems to be fascinated by Noem ; and not of the house itself, which begins to invade Noemi's dreams with visions of blood and doom.Her only ally in this inhospitable abode is the family's youngest son. Shy and gentle, he seems to want to help, but might also be hiding dark knowledge of his family's past, their once colossal wealth and a faded mining empire. As Noem digs deeper, she unearths stories of violence and madness, and she may soon find it impossible to leave this enigmatic house behind . . .PRAISE FOR MEXICAN GOTHIC'The subversive, seductive, satisfying haunted house story I didn't know I needed' - Alix E.
