| Publisher Description: In this compelling tale of romance and terror, a little-known legend has been woven into a novel that will grip readers from beginning to end. Who is Undine, the mysterious, wild maiden who swims at midnight to hear the fish sing? When Lord Huldbrand first meets her on a lost and haunted promontory, she seems utterly beautiful and pure. But gradually he begins to wonder just how much he really knows about his bride. He fears her murky past and her mystical powers. And worst of all, he fears that the faceless demon that stalks them through the woods and castle, cackling with laughter and howling with rage, could be coming to claim her. A love story with a horrifying mystery at its core, Haunted Waters tests its young hero's commitment to a heroine who sparkles and changes like water. |
