This is my third Barbara Michaels - I participated in the Ammie Come Home buddy read last year for Halloween bingo, which was so much fun, and I read Be Buried in the Rain, which has a terrifying southern gothic vibe going on, as it is set in Virginia. Wait for What Will Come was set in Cornwall, ...
This is one of my favorite Barbara Michaels books! It takes place in Cornwall and there's a dark and handsome stranger, a cromlech (circle of standing stones), and an ancient Roman mosaic. There's also some suspicion that mister tall, dark, and handsome is a selkie.
Ending was just too rushed for me. Otherwise, loved the setting and the atmosphere.
