Hudson 02 Lightning Strikes
by V. C. Andrews
Torn from the embrace
of her poor but loving family, Rain Arnold now lives surrounded by
opulent riches but feels more like an outsider than ever before. Her
heart's true passion—the theatre—may prove to be her salvation, as she
embarks on a journey to unmask a legacy of long-buried family secrets.
Enrolled in one of England's most prestigious drama schools,
Rain is sent to London to live with her great-aunt, Lenora, of the
renowned Endfield family. Their estate is breathtakingly austere,
filled with antiques and a long, storied history. But something isn't
right. Rain hears footsteps at night, and the high-pitched laughter of a
little girl. She sees strange lights in rooms that are supposed to be
closed off. And everything about the place—the air, the silence, even
the somber household staff—is as cold and soulless as a museum. Behind
the icy sheen of wealth and privilege lies something unpseakable.
Something that could turn Rain's most precious dreams into an
inescapable nightmare...
