The Twilight Child by Elizabeth Harris

The Twilight Child by Elizabeth Harris

A riveting story of supernatural suspense and ghostly romance, from the author of The Sacrifice Stone and The Quiet Earth. It is the hot September of 1942, and Clare is waiting for the birth of her first child while her husband, Will, is away fighting. When she accepts the gift of an antique cradle from an old lady in the village, Clare begins to have arresting visions of an older, darker Firlebury. At the same time, a soldier, Gabriel, appears, gentle, kind and comforting. In this twilight world of alluring beauty and brutal savagery, is she awake, or is she dreaming? Then, with the birth of baby Michael, Clare realises that someone, or something, is threatening her child. As the forces of an ancient evil gather about her with terrifying violence, it seems that the mysterious Gabriel alone can save her. But will salvation force her into a betrayal of all she holds dear? With page-turning suspense, vivid atmosphere and intriguing romance, Elizabeth Harris weaves a fascinating tale full of drama and excitement, which her readers will find both irresistible and compulsive.
