One of the first novels by Phyllis A Whitney, a suspense thriller.
I am a huge fan of Gothics. This is written by a wonderful author. Whitney keeps you interrested.
When Tracy Hubbard arrived in Istanbul she thought no one knew of her connection with the beautiful Anabel Radburn who had died so mysteriously a few months before.
But she was wrong.
Someone in that crumbling, exotic villa on the Bosporus where Anabel lived had discovered the American girl's secret.
Now Tracy's own life was in danger, and there was no one she could trust. Alone in this ancient land of mosques and minarets, surrounded by strangers and shadows, Tracy began to piece together the broken threads of Anabel Radburn's life... and found that she had plunged headlong into a whirlpool of conspiracy and terror from which there was no escape.
