Emily's Secret: A Writer...A Love Story...A Curse...A Diary...A Secret...

An exhilarating blend of past and present, of mystery and romance, and of love lost and found.

"I should not write this lest Charlotte come snooping, for he made me promise not to tell anyone of his whereabouts. And yet it is all so strange I am loath not to record it. I will mark it now, and maybe tomorrow awaken to find it only a mad dream anyhow, like all the rest..." -- From the diary of Emily Bronte

Alex Hightower, an American professor, has always been fascinated by Emily Bronte and her brief, tragic life. But what were the secrets she took with her to her grave? The answers begin in the village of Haworth, where Emily lived and died, as Alex delves into the past to unlock a hundred-and-fifty-year-old mystery.

Was Emily a lonely spinster of legend? Or a troubled, passionate woman who loved in secret? And who is Selena, the mysterious gypsy beauty Alex meets on Haworth's storm-tossed moors, who speaks of a family curse, and who knows more than she realizes about Emily's secrets?
