Exactly what I expected from a 70s pulp gothic romance type paperback. I didn't even realize, until my daughter picked the book up and read aloud, "A Satanic Gothic?" LOL There's not even anything Satanic or Devil-related in this book. The "supernatural" elements were based off African mythology, specifically Egyptian goddesses. Oh, the paperback lines of yesteryear! Anywho, Wing was likeable AND smart, if not a little mopey, but she was grieving after all. The house and setting sufficiently ominous. And the housekeeper, Mrs. Hansen, almost as detestable as the main antagonist.

I did wonder, why was the Tom cat so dang mean? But I'd have to agree with Wing: he survived in the end, I'm sure. Mean cats always do. LOL
