AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Eleanora has had a failed marriage. She lives with her mother, a religious woman. They take in a house boarder. This is all simple enough. Yet the past that slowly reveals itself is eating this family of sorts alive, and draws Eleanora to a room, and a place within herself which she may not survive. From one of our finest writers, a haunting, Gothic tale of a family gone wrong, religion gone mad and the horror a mother and daughter can inflict on each other.' (Publication summary)
