An excellent new Gothic thriller from the acclaimed author of The Ghost Copy writer and The Séance. Perplexed and disoriented, Georgina Ferrars awakens in a small room in Tregannon House, an exclusive asylum in a distant corner of Great britain. She has no storage area of the past few weeks. The doctor Maynard Straker instructs her that she accepted herself under the name Lucy Ashton the day before and then endured a seizure. When she insists he has mistaken her for someone else, Dr. Straker directs a telegram to her uncle, who replies that Georgina Ferrars reaches home with him in London: "Your patient must be an imposter." Instantly her voluntary confinement becomes involuntary. Who's the girl in her uncle's house? And what is becoming of her two most important possessions: a dragonfly pin kept to her by her mother and a journal which has the only real record of those lacking weeks? Georgina's perilous goal to free herself will take her from a cliffside cottage on the Isle of Wight to the secret passages of Tregannon House and into an online of concealed family ties which her survival depends. Here's another scrumptious read from the writer praised by Ruth Rendell as having "a surprise for creating suspense, apparently effortlessly, as if it belongs in the nature of fiction."
