A suspenseful debut novel about identity, reminiscent of the mythical lyricism of Margaret Atwood and the taut eroticism of Josephine Hart.
Janet grew up with her father; her mother, she was always told, died when she was three. But now she discovers she has inherited a house from her mother―who, she learns, died only recently. In a state of shock she travels north with the key, and finds an old stone cottage at the sea's edge."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
