Ralestone Luck is an early Andre Norton novel of family mystery, lost inheritance, Southern atmosphere, and romantic adventure. Rupert, Ricky, and Val Ralestone arrive at Pirate's Haven, their ancestral Louisiana estate, with little money and a great deal of pride. The old house carries legends of pirates, hidden treasure, family secrets, and the missing talisman known as the Ralestone Luck. What begins as an attempt to reclaim a ruined inheritance soon becomes a lively mystery of old grudges, strange visitors, buried history, and danger in the bayou country.
Written before Norton became famous as one of the major names in science fiction and fantasy, Ralestone Luck shows the storytelling gifts that would define her later career: quick pacing, adventurous atmosphere, resourceful young characters, and a strong sense of place. With its haunted house touches, treasure-hunt intrigue, family loyalty, Louisiana setting, and classic mystery-adventure structure, this novel is an engaging rediscovery for readers of vintage mystery, classic adventure fiction, and the early work of one of the most important genre writers of the twentieth century. Explore other exciting Positronic Books devoted to classic science fiction, fantasy, and mystery.
