Her passion is kindled by the icy fire of Nicholas, the last of the Van Ryns, and the luxury of Dragonwyck, and a way of life of which she has only dreamed. Dressed in satin and lace, she becomes part of Dragonwyck, with its Gothic towers, flowering gardens, acres of tenant farms, and dark, terrible secrets.
This compelling novel paints a marvelous portrait of a country torn between freedom and feudal traditions; a country divided between the very wealthy and the very poor tenant farmers at Dragonwyck, the European royalty who visit, and American icons such as Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, and John Jacob Astor. All are vividly brought to life.
In this story of a remarkable woman, her breathtaking passions, and the mystery and terror surrounding the strange and dangerous man that awaits her in the magnificent hallways of Dragonwyck.
There is no sweetness and light in this books that is more thriller that romance. If you should want to see the 1944 movie based on this book there is a torrent available.
