Riassunto

Following a shattering and all-too-public personal tragedy, Antonia Weston has come to the sleepy town of Amberwood seeking peace and anonymity. But that peace is soon threatened by a series of disturbing incidents?incidents that eerily echo a past she's trying to forget. As she struggles to rebuild her life, Antonia becomes drawn to the town's macabre history: the abandoned mill, Twygrist, with its brooding darkness, and the now-vanished Latchkill Asylum. Antonia's fascination with the linked histories of Latchkill and Twygrist has alerted someone from her own past. Someone who knows all about Twygrist's darkness. Someone prepared to use that knowledge in the most horrifying way.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

"The dangerous thing about spider-light is that it hides things - things you never knew existed. But once you have seen those things, you can never afterwards forget them . . . "
Following a shattering and all-too-public tragedy in her life, Antonia Weston has come to the sleepy market town of Amberwood seeking peace and anonymity. But that peace is soon threatened by a series of disturbing incidents - incidents that eerily echo a past she is trying to forget.
As she struggles to rebuild her life, Antonia becomes increasingly fascinated by the macabre history surrounding her: the disused mill, Twygrist, with its brooding darkness, and the now-vanished Latchkill Asylum.
Memories of Latchkill still linger: memories of how, when the autumn dusk - the 'spider-light' - fell, no one would dare walk past its gates. Because, a hundred years ago, people lost their identities inside Latchkill's walls. People like the innocent Maud Lincoln, jolted out of that innocence by a brutal plot.
Antonia's fascination with the linked histories of Latchkill and Twygrist has alerted someone from her own past. Someone who knows all about Twygrist's darkness. Someone prepared to use that knowledge in the most horrifying way . . .
