About the Book
Gil hurried towards the little girl, then slowed down and stopped a few metres away. "Hello..." she said uncertainly.
The child didn't return the greeting. Instead she gave Gil a sidelong, almost sly look, and said, "Your sister's sick, isn't she?"
Gil's heart lurched. "Yes - we don't know what's wrong with her."
"I do," said the child, "And I can help. But you have to come with me. Come now..."
When Gil and her younger sister, Biddy, first see the ancient church near a deserted beach in Norfolk, their lives become entangled with a terrifying curse. Now Biddy is suddenly and mysteriously ill, and Gil herself feels under threat from a ghostly, menacing presence. She needs help, and only her cousin Jonas seems willing to unravel the deadly mystery with her. But what will Gil and Jonas discover - and will they live to tell the tale?
