Beware the Kindly Stranger

Who was Mr. Asmodeus? What strange power did he control? Mario Holt's fiance Hugh hinted darkly at the old man's "illegal" past, but Marie knew him only as a kindly white-haired stranger -- a patron of the arts who had offered to recoup the losses of her failing art gallery. She couldn't refuse his generosity, and when he had proven his honorable intentions, she couldn't refuse the hospitality of his Long Island mansion. But what he did he want in return? And, more important, why couldn't Marie ask him that question?Ross, Clarissa is the author of 'Beware the Kindly Stranger' with ISBN 9780754041085 and ISBN 0754041085.
