Picture Romance #178

Edward comes to the small Spanish town of Gallia, tucked away in the foothills of the North Mountains, to help take over his uncle's general practice. He meets a beautiful girl there who lives alone. Cynthia's mother had died giving birth to her and her father had been washed out to sea after saving her from drowning years ago. After her father's death, the townspeople accused Cynthia of bring bad luck. Since then, they have shunned her and called her a witch.
