      It is the late 1920s and Sarah loves her work as an apprentice in the sheds at the Staffordshire pottery Frenshaws. She is able to escape her miserable home life where her hateful step-father Joe abuses her mother, though not completely because Joe is Frenshaws’ chief thrower. When Sarah’s talent is recognized by the master potter and owner, Daniel, she is sent to Design School where she meets wealthy Annabel and they become friends. But Sarah’s life is far from settled. Her brutal step-father lies in wait for her one night and rapes her. She escapes to live with her grandmother where she learns secrets about her past and heritage, and a life she had never imagined opens up for her.

      AN OLD MAN DIED – AND THE CURTAIN ROSE FOR A SINISTER DRAMA... The orphaned Janet Bewleigh became an heiress overnight – the unexpected reward for a good deed – and now the once-closed doors of her beloved Knight's Keep were open to her. But an aura of evil hung over the magnificent manor; it pressed on Janet like an invisible veil. She wondered about Lord Ashford, her enigmatic, strangely alluring host, and about the sad, dead girl whose spirit still hovered over the Keep. And then Janet read the old family inscription and knew that the final act would soon be played: "REPELLE, DOMINE, VIRTUTEM DIABOLI" DRIVE BACK, O LORD, THE POWER OF THE DEVIL...
