I loved this book. Haunting and engrossing.

This was the first Turner Hospital Book I read, and it had me from the first page. The delightful style of writing as well as the almost detective style plot both kept me reading until it was done. In the middle of my exam period at uni, I could do nothing else!Turner Hospital's repetitive theme of displacement is found again here in the character of Felicity and her constant movement from childhood onward. Very topical in today's "global village" in which many of us find ourselves not sure where we belong, after living in and becoming attached to many different places, this theme is accessible but not laboured.Highly recommended.
Magical, scary, disturbing, haunting.

READ SLOW - you'll think you'll never get into this one but after 50 pages or so you'll find yourself swept along. Hard to describe the feelings this story evokes - like you've seen something you were not supposed to and you've been changed. This author has tremendous talent
