A Family Affair: A Novel Of Horror - Plot & Excerpts
The voice was from the hall outside, beyond the locked door. Jennifer sat up in bed and watched the door as though expecting it to open despite the lock, and despite the dresser pushed against it. But nothing happened. “Jennifer. It’s me, Marcella.” Marcella. Strange or not the young girl was still the one friend Jennifer had at Kelsey House. And she and Wilfred were Jennifer’s only hopes of escaping. She needed Marcella’s help. “Just a minute,” she called back, getting up from the bed and crossing to where the dresser blocked the door. It was a laborious task, moving the heavy piece of furniture out of the way. “Don’t go,” she called to Marcella, straining to push the dresser aside. Finally the door opened sufficiently to allow Marcella to enter the room. Jennifer at once locked the door again, leaning against it as if to hold it shut against some intruder trying to get in.
