Magical Tome

The outer archives are busy
A friend's mysterious accident brought her to this tropical paradise -- face to face with her first love, fearsome evil, and certain death. SUICIDE...SHIPWRECK...SUNKEN TREASURE... ...and the beautiful and independent Marina Derwent had yet to set foot on Antilla - the lush Caribbean island that belied the dark terrors lurking behind its sun-drenched setting. It is at the Tamarind estate that Marina discovers the secret diary that suggests her school friend, Julia, may have been murdered. But why? And by whom? Marcus Granville, master of Tamarind, warns Marina to stay out of the affair, but she is determined to solve the baffling mystery. In time the answer comes, and with it a surprising passion for the brooding and enigmatic Mr. Granville. But by that time it is too late for both of them.
