Description:
<DIV><B>What evil lies within a family&rsquo;s secret history? &ldquo;A first-class creeper, a literary ghost story in the Victorian tradition&rdquo; by the author of <I>The S&eacute;ance</I> (<I>The Boston Globe</I>)<I>.</I></B><BR /> &#160;<BR /> Timid, solitary librarian Gerard Freeman lives for just two things: his elusive pen pal, Alice, and a story he found hidden in his mother&rsquo;s drawer years ago. Written by his great-grandmother Viola, it hints at his mother&rsquo;s role in a sinister crime. And as he discovers more of Viola&rsquo;s chilling tales, he realizes that they might hold the key to finding Alice and unveiling his family&rsquo;s mystery.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> But upon returning to his ancestral home in England, Gerard finds that the stories-within-stories of his past begin to blur the lines between fact, fiction, and fantasy. They&rsquo;re also driving him so deep into the dark that he might not be able to see what&rsquo;s right in front of him until it&rsquo;s too late.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> &ldquo;A haunting literary gothic&rdquo; (<I>Booklist</I>) that has earned extraordinary critical acclaim, this novel is &ldquo;a Victorian ghost story that honors the likes of Dickens and Henry James . . . A smart, stylish and mesmerizing book&rdquo; (<I>The Washington Post Book World</I>)<I>.</I><BR /> &#160;<BR /> &ldquo;Intricate and engrossing.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. One ghoulishly absorbing read.&rdquo; &mdash;<I>Entertainment Weekly</I></DIV>
