White Jade: A Novel of Terror

by V. J. Banis

Young Christmas Channing returns to Jeff because he tells her that his life's in danger, that he's being poisoned with arsenic by his wife. But when she arrives at Morgan House, she doesn't find what she expects - only David, the strange, secretive brother-in-law; Mary, Jeff's cunning, crafty spouse; and Jeff himself, the handsome but vastly changed young man whom she'd once loved, but does not now understand. Chris is lost, confused, and swept into a powerful undertow of danger, panic, and past love.

Is Jeff really dying? And just what exactly is going on at Morgan House? It almost seems that the only stop for her now is...death.

I loved it! I do have to say it almost lost its 4-star rating because Chris was so stupid, but she found some of her brain cells before the end so I forgave her. It was not hard to guess most of what was really going on, but somehow the book still managed to be a nailbiter. The insta-love was just as laughable as usual, but it's much easier to overlook when you're caught up in the rest of the story.

Amazing story like no other I’ve ever read. The premise is chilling and twisty. A quick, exciting read.
