Opis

The mazy house on the cliffs near Dover has been home to generations of Silver women - and it never lets them go. Reeling from the sudden death of her mother Lily, Miranda Silver is newly resident. As slowly she too begins to disappear, her twin brother Eliot and her best friend Ore are left asking 'Where is Miranda?'.

Recenzje

Superbly atmospheric. The dark tones of Poe in her haunting have the elasticity of Haruki Murakami's surreal mental landscapes. Independent
