When plucky orphaned Eleanor Morgan comes to work for the strange Belmont family in their dilapidated old pile, she is at first delighted to be stepping into the pages of a Gothic romance. Young and naive, there are many things that perplex her about this old and aristocratic family's behaviour. Does she simply not understand their world, or does something far more sinister lie beneath the surface?
In a way, Eleanor hopes there does, and as she settles into her new life at the Hall, many thrilling encounters and a plethora of questions pull her deeper into its mystery. But her imagination is no match for the real horrors that lurk behinds these walls, and she is irrevocably drawn into a mystery and conspiracy from which she may never escape. For at Belmont Hall, the sins of the past will emerge, love is never innocent, and Eleanor must choose between escaping the darkness and learning to live within it.
The Mystery of Belmont Hall is a playful parody of the Gothic novel, and deals with the ideas of cliché and misinterpretation.
