Fox's Earth by Anne Rivers Siddons

Book Description
At Fox's Earth there was no room for love, no room for desire. There was only room for fear.

Ruth Yancey is only a small child the first time she lays eyes on the magnificent, three-storied Georgia house called Fox's Earth. The daughter of an impoverished and cruel mill worker, she knows that someday she will not only live in such a house, but will make it her own. And once she becomes Ruth Yancey Fox, she does, achieving total domination over all those under its roof. Or rather, all the women.

For decades Ruth rules with tyranny by way of evil manipulation. And always, her cache of closely guarded secrets and acts of cruelty grow. Eventually, even Ruth realizes that some day those lies will have to come out....
