Gates of Paradise

The bestselling saga of the Casteel family — Heaven, Dark Angel, Fallen Hearts — continues in this dazzling new story from Virginia Andrews.

Gates of Paradise is the story of Annie, Heaven 's daughter, a sweet and loving young woman who has known the sort of happy home that always seemed out of her mother's reach — until a terrible car crash shatters her world. Heaven and Logan are killed and Annie is left paralysed. Taken to Farthinggale Manor by her mysterious 'great-grandfather' , Tony Tatterton, Annie pines for her lost family, but especially for Luke, her half-brother, her fantasy prince, the loving confidant of her childhood.

At Farthinggale Manor she becomes lost in the despair of the decaying mansion, haunted by the growing suspicion that Tony is trying to keep her an invalid. Then Annie discovers the secret cottage owned by Tony's brother Troy, which is hidden deep in Farthinggale woods, and the mystery deepens.

Even as Annie yearns to be well again, to regain her old life, and to see Luke once more, her tender hopes are threatened by the sinister plans of Tony Tatterton and the shadowy secrets of Farthinggale Manor — where nothing is as it appears to be. --front flap
