From the critically acclaimed author of Hekla's Children comes a dark and haunting tale of our world and the next. After a brutal break-in leaves her family traumatised,Trish Feenan jumps at the chance of a fresh start in a charming historic community. But in the back garden of her new cottage sits an unsettling reminder of past wrongs: a standing stone,once one of the markers that kept plague sufferers outside the village bounds,its `powers'renewed every year in a ritual that seems to be more than just local oddity. As the Feenans settle in,they experience unexplained accidents,accompanied by sightings of a girl who vanishes into thin air. Soon,it becomes obvious that there is a reason traditions must not slip,and that all acts of betrayal,even those committed centuries ago,have consequences...
