A forbidden love, a jungle hell, a bird whose cry means death.
The Palace is home to the wealthy Draytons in Manalos, a decaying city of crumbling mansions and time darkened mysteries, deep within the teeming Brazilian jungle. Hired as a schoolteacher by Kitty Drayton, young Elizabeth Parker hopes to make a new life for herself. She finds instead a forbidden love and a terror that stalks her relentlessly - and when she hears the cry of the jungle bird, the Mother of the Moon, old timers tell her that it is an omen of death.
