But nothing is as Léonie had imagined. Their aunt is young, willowy, and beautiful, and the estate is a subject of local superstition. Villagers claim that LéonieÂ's late uncle died after summoning a demon from the old Visigoth sepulchre on its groundsÂ…<BR><BR> More than a century later, Meredith Martin, an American graduate student, arrives in Rennes-le- Bains while researching the life of Claude Debussy. Haunted by a Tarot reading she had in Paris—and possessing the mysterious deck of cards—she checks into a grand old hotel built on the site of a famous mountain estate destroyed by fire in 1896. There, the pack of Tarot cards and a piece of 19th-century music known as <I>Sepulchre 1891</I> hold the key to her fate—just as they did to the fate of Léonie Vernier.
