Another box set of four (4) Dorothy Eden Gothic Novels. Cover of box has a label "Dorothy Eden Library," a letter-number series (96452-4) and a price of $6.95. The four (4) novels are:

The Brooding Lake, Yellow is for Fear, Death is a Red Rose  and Listen to Danger (ACE 07977).


97886 DOROTHY EDEN (aka DOROTHY ENID EDEN) Dorothy Eden Library (box cover by Walter Popp; 1981?)

Another box set of five (5) Dorothy Eden Gothic Novels. Cover of box has a label "Dorothy Eden Library," a letter-number series (97886) and a price of $8.25. The five (5) novels have separate letter-number series. These are:

The Daughters of Ardmore Hall (ACE 13884), Bride by Candlelight (ACE 07932), Cat's Prey (ACE 09257), Shadow of a Witch (ACE 76073), and Bridge of Fear (ACE 07977).

The only issue is whether this letter-number series (on the label) is correct. I have found another listing for a letter-number series for this box set that is ACE 07978-4. However, this is as out-of-sequence in the letter-number series listings as the ACE 97886 letter-number. If any AIL users has insight into how they numbered these box set, it would be appreciated.
