Sobre este título

Willy Patrick, the author of the Caldecott-winning young-adult novel In the Night Room, thinks she is loosing her mind again. Two weeks before her second marriage, on her way home one day, Willy is drawn into the parking lot of a warehouse. Knowing that her daughter Holly is being held in that building, she wants to rescue her. But what she knows is impossible, for her daughter is dead. On the same day, author Timothy Underhill, struggling with a new book about a troubled young woman, is confronted with the ghost of his nine-year-old sister, April. Soon after, Underhill begins to receive eerie, fragmented e-mails that he finally realizes are from dead people whom he knew in his youth. Like his sister, they want to tell him something. When Willy and Timothy meet, they recognize each other, realizing that they must join forces to confront the evils surrounding them.

Resumo da Crítica

“A powerful and arresting foray into the dark fantastic.”The Washington Post Book World

“So imaginative, intricate, and electrifying that readers will be tempted to race through the novel.”—Associated Press

“A chase novel and a metafictional fun ride that, like much of Straub’s work, takes genre elements and twists them into something unexpected.”Time Out New York

“A twisting, fast-paced plot.”USA Today

“A brilliant work of horrific fantasy . . . Anyone looking for a good read providing plenty of thrills while doling out literary meditations on the nature of fantasy vs. reality won't find a better book.”—St. Louis Post-Dispatch

“[A] brilliant novel . . . Moving briskly while ranging from high humor to the blackest dread, this is an original, astonishingly smart and expertly entertaining meditation on imagination and its powers; one of the very finest works of Straub’s long career, it’s a sure bet for future award nominations.”Publishers Weekly

“Popular fiction of an intriguingly high order, deftly exploring how imagination not only draws on reality but can actually shape it.”Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

“A fascinating jumble of fantasy and reality.”BookPage

"Straub’s truly twisted talent for weirdness takes off into a full-blown hurricane of reality-bending, mind-boggling proportions. . . . This book will really unravel your brains. Definitely a must-read.”Realms of Fantasy

“This must-read horror tale is simply incredible in every way. Tender, dark, and simmering with a wry irony that is just plain inspired, it’s the perfect book for a cold autumn afternoon.”New Mystery Reader

“Yet another brilliant piece of work by a writer who should long ago have been honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award.”Amazing Stories
