Black Night

Description for BLACK NIGHT by S J Strayhorn:

NOT ALL NIGHTMARES END IN THE LIGHT OF DAY…

For years, Eugenia Fairfax has been haunted by terrifying dreams of her unhappy childhood at Vandergriff Hall, an orphanage built over a 19^th-century army fort.  Now she has returned to Kansas with her daughter Lena in the hope of finally exorcising the demons of the past.

Nothing has changed in the small town of Fort Grant.  Vandegriff Hall still stands.  The townspeople still whisper behind Eugenia’s back.  Chilling stories still abound about a young girl named Martha who disappeared one dark, cold night.  Then Lena begins an affair with a man once convicted for the brutal slayings of two women.  And as the town is suddenly rocked by a series of murders that mirror crimes of long ago.  Eugenia’s worst fears are about to come true.

With the unerring skill of a consummate storyteller, S J Strayhorn gives us the spellbinding story of two women haunted by the ghosts of the past.
