New York: Scribner, (2016). First edition - A captivating novel by this award-winning British author, set in a world both familiar and alien - "a genre-defying, utterly bewitching masterwork, an inversion of modern fairy tales . . . weaving elements of psychological suspense, Jamesian stream of consciousness, and neo-gothic horror, to reveal the inescapable effects of abandonment, isolation, and the grotesque as well as the glimmers of goodness buried deep within the soul." 210 pp.
