Synopsis: Publisher: The Wall stood four feet thick, and its gate boasted a jail cell lock. For twenty years, Alice Critten's Great-Aunt Eleanor had lived in seclusion in Bon Riviere, Louisiana, in her modest home. The wall encircling her property was her only defense against unearthly night noises and malicious pranks and threats. But it could not keep out death forever. When Critten arrives to claim the house as her inheritance, she is also bequeathed the haunting mystery of murder, missing children and supernatural influences which had filled the dead woman's life with such terror—-a mystery that now threatens Critten's own existence!
