Lord of the far island / Victoria Holt.

Summary:

Lovely Ellen Kellaway was rescued from a bleak future by her newly discovered guardian, Jago Kellaway, Lord of the Far Island, off the wild coast of Cornwall. There, Ellen was drawn deeper and deeper into the secrets of a past as alive and threatening as the present. There Jago offered her the fabled Island Necklace worn by the mistresses of Kellaway Castle. But was it a promise of happiness -- or a dark symbol of death . . .?

Raised by resentful relatives, orphaned Ellen Kellaway is thrilled when a distant kinsman invites her to the family estate in Cornwall, little realizing that deception and danger-as well as love-await her. This classic by the writer who sparked the Gothic craze with the publication of Mistress of Mellyn (1960) should be in most collections. Victoria Holt (d. 1993) is a pseudonym for Eleanor Buford Hibbert; she wrote historical fiction as Jean Plaidy and Philippa Carr. (c) Copyright 2010.
