Synopsis
Late on a snowy November afternoon, while driving from town to her family's farm in upper New York State, Barry Brennan has the accident. From the first, it is a mystery: the young man whom she strikes and injures slightly is physically perfect, stripped of clothing and identification, without speech or memory, a seemingly "newborn" twenty-year-old man. He is also strangely like Barry's fiancé, Ned Kramer, who was tragically killed in an accident the year before. It's almost as if Barry's love and longing for Ned had actually willed the handsome stranger into being.
The accident victim's recovery begins only when Barry arouses him from an inexplicable coma. He suddenly "remembers" his name, Mark Draven. He quickly binds Barry to him by a love deeper than any she has ever known. Obsessed by Draven, Barry is blind to the growing horror she's inflicting on those she loves most: her father, Tom Brennan, the famous painter whose priceless talent will be threatened; Dal, Barry's brother, whose love for Barry will move him inexorably toward destruction; and Alexandra Chatellaine, the elderly neighbor whose secret knowledge of the occult marks her as the only power possible to stop Mark Draven--the handsome stranger who becomes for the Brennans a terrifying and uninvited guest.
