AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The Days run a successful gourmet weekend holiday business from their historic homestead. At first the Todds appear to be the most delightful of weekend guests, and there is a curious attraction between fourteen-year-old Chrissie Day and their son, Tiger Todd. But weekend guests should know when to leave, and the Days realise too late that the Todds have a voracious appetite, and the Days have silently become enmeshed in a spiralling web of fear.
