The Red Lady

"The Red Lady" by Katharine Newlin Burt is a thrilling mystery set in the shadows of a secluded estate, The Pines. This is where Janice Gale accepts a job as a housekeeper for the anxious Mrs. Edna Brane and her ailing son, Robbie. Janice soon discovers that the estate’s serene facade hides a troubling past–previous employees have mysteriously fled, driven away by unsettling experiences and Robbie’s chilling visions of a red-haired woman. As Janice becomes increasingly involved in the eerie events, she is determined to unveil the secrets of The Pines. Matters take a shocking turn with the death of young Robbie, which further complicates Janice's role and intensifies the suspense around the red-haired figure, to whom Janice bears an uncanny resemblance. This mysterious death plants Janice at the center of a web of suspicion and danger.
