📗 Libro en inglés A SPELL OF WINTER

WINNER OF THE WOMENS PRIZE FOR FICTION

Tense, dark and intensely gripping . . . written so seductively that passages sing out from the page Sunday Times

Cathy and her brother, Rob, dont know why they have been abandoned by their parents. Alone in their grandfathers decaying country house, they roam the wild grounds freely with minds attuned to the rural wilderness. Lost in their own private world, they seek and find new lines to cross.

But as the First World War draws closer, crimes both big and small threaten the delicate refuge they have built. Cathy will do anything to protect their dark Eden from anyone, or anything, that threatens to destroy it.
