QUATRIEME DE COUVERTURE :

La nuit dernièe, j'aui revu la maison.

Je n'y suis pourtant jamais allée.

Dans mon rêve, je pousse la porte et j'entre.

Toujours.

La nuit dernière elle était fermée à clef.

Quelqu'un voulait m'empêcher d'y accéder.

Aujourd'hui, je descends lentement de la voiture, les yeux rivés sur le maison.

C'est celle de mon rêve.

Pour la seconde fois en 24 heure, je monte les marches,

Cette fois la porte s'ouvre en grand.

Le cauchemar commence.

Pendant 16 ans, Megan n’a pas eu de nouvelles de sa grand-mère. Et voilà que celle-ci l’invite dans son manoir, sans pour autant l’accueillir avec chaleur. Megan y rencontre son cousin Matt, tout aussi froid, qui l’attire étrangement. Elle découvre un petit cimetière familial où gît une certaine Avril, morte à l’âge de 16 ans. A force d’événements étranges et de recherches, Megan comprend qu’Avril est morte - assassinée ? - pour l’amour d’un homme et que l’histoire pourrait bien se répéter...

Sortie che Black Moon courant 2011 :)

Elizabeth Chandler’s Dark Secrets is an omnibus of two of her Wisteria novels, young adult novels full of suspense and a healthy dollop of the supernatural. The two novels, Legacy of Lies and Don’t Tell, both take place in the sleepy (well, in appearance) town of Wisteria, Maryland. Wisteria is a small town, and the small town feel allows Chandler to explore a level of coincidence and curiosity that might be impossible in a big city. Whatever the crime or mystery, there is always a sense of the town itself, of something old and complicated, full of stories and secrets.

Two girls haunted by the past...and destined to relive it

In Legacy of Lies, Megan has to stay with the uptight grandmother she wants nothing to do with. She's determined to get through the visit without any drama, but when she falls into a twisted love triangle with potentially fatal consequences, Megan may be caught up in her family's legacy in more ways than she realizes.

In Don't Tell, Lauren knows that by returning to the town where her mother drowned seven years ago, she'll be reliving one of her most haunting memories. When she arrives, she is propelled into a series of mysterious events that mimic the days leading up to her mother's death. Maybe her mother's drowning wasn't an accident after all...and maybe Lauren is next.

She had seen Scarborough House only in her dreams. Now Megan was here, visiting the grandmother she’d never met, and her newfound cousin Matt, too handsome by far, who wanted her to disappear. Grandmother was so cold, so distant. Why did she finally reach out to Megan after all these years? And why was Matt so determined to call her his “almost” cousin? For all her prophetic dreams, nothing could have prepared Megan for Matt’s astonishment when he first saw her…or the reaction of perfect strangers who looked at her with fascination-and fear…

Megan thought she knew who she was. Until she came to Grandmother’s house. Until she met Matt, who angered and attracted her as no boy had ever done before. Then she began having dreams again, of a life she never lived, a love she never knew…a secret that threatened to drive her to the grave.
