| Summary: | "At the age of ten, Liza Barton had shot her mother, trying desperately to protect her from her estranged stepfather. Despite her stepfather's claim that the shooting was a deliberate act, the Juvenile Court ruled the death an accident. Many people compared her to the infamous murderess Lizzie Borden. To erase Liza's past, her adoptive parents changed her name to Celia. At age twenty-eight, she marries a sixty-year-old widower and they have a son. Before their marriage, she reveals her true identity. On his deathbed, he makes her swear never to tell anyone so that their son will not carry the stigma of her past. Happily remarried, Celia's peace of mind is shattered when her new husband surprises her with a gift--the house where she killed her mother. On the day they move in, they find the words LITTLE LIZZIE'S PLACE--BEWARE painted on the lawn. There are splotches of red paint all over the house, and skull and crossbones are carved into the door. Someone in the community knows Celia's true identity. When their real estate agent is brutally murdered, Celia becomes a suspect. As Celia fights to prove her innocence, she is not aware that she and her son are now the targets of a killer"--Container. |
