A mystery boy. A woman with no past. A bond which goes beyond both their lifetimes
When Clara finds a young boy playing in the grounds of her country home, she asks who brought him there. You did, he says. But Clara has never seen him before.
As a secretive friendship grows between Clara and the boy, Alfie, the similarities in their pasts begin to emerge. Clara has no memory of the life she led before waking from a coma, and nor can Alfie recall his own younger years.
Clara delves into the history of the house, and learns of a tragic event which happened centuries ago. Could this explain the connection between herself and Alfie? If she is right, then the future is bleak for both of them. Clara tries to convince her loved ones that she is caught up in something none of them can fully comprehend, but can she change the course of fate, or will history simply keep repeating itself, again and again?
'A rapturously beautiful story of a lost boy and two lost souls.'
'A supernatural story that weaves its way between the past and the present, whilst conjuring up pictures of the beautiful surroundings in which it is set.'
'Intriguing and complex with twists that leave you wanting to read the next chapter.'
This supernatural thriller is the perfect read for fans of Barbara Erskine and Katherine Webb.
