Description
'Fresh. Original. Spell-binding.' Jane Corry
'…a wonderful writer with a painterly eye for detail... There are some brilliant twists.' Wendy Holden, Daily Mail
Cassandra Parkin brings us a ghostly winter mystery with a modern gothic flavor. A dark tale of twisted love, marriage, family secrets and hauntings, Parkin keeps us guessing throughout.
Five years ago, Susannah Harper's son Joel went missing without trace. Bereft of her son and then of her husband John, Susannah tries to accept that she may never know for certain what has happened to her lost loved ones. She has rebuilt her life around a simple selfless mission: to help others who, like her, must learn to live without hope.
But then, on the last night of Hull Fair, a fortune-teller makes an eerie prediction. Susannah is told that this Christmas Eve, Joel will finally come back to her.

Breathtaking!!! I could not put this book down. It’s a beautifully written book about the life of a mother who’s son has gone missing and her quest to find out the truth. It’s a heartbreaking read rushing to a dramatic conclusion but I could not put it down
Pamela H, Reviewer
Eerily written tale with a complex leading lady. This one seems to have it all...ghosts, psychics, fortune-tellers, hallucinations - all of which is exquisitely handled by MS. Parkin. A haunting tale of a mother's love and the depths she goes to in order to find her missing son. This was my first time reading anything by CP, but it certainly won't be my last.
**Thank you to the publisher and Net Galley in exchange of an honest review.**
