Florence Stevenson: A Darkness on the Stairs

A Darkness on the Stairs was published by Signet in April 1976 for author Florence Stevenson. Oriel Quentin was the image of her famous grandmother, Calista Blake, and found during a visit to Harrowdene that Calista's presence still haunted those who lived there.

Allan Kass gives us a pretty heroine and her dress makes it hard to know what era this book is set though the jewelry seem modern. I like the red coat which is a splash of color on this dark cover. I wish my copy was in better condition.
