Over dit audioboek
When possession threatens to destroy the ones she loves, a former child medium is forced to face her deadly inheritance and the ghosts she left behind in this electrifying debut.
Girls for the gifts, boys for the grave.
Alice Haserot thought she’d escaped the curse. For sixteen years, she’s lived far from her family and the ghosts she used to conjure. But her past isn’t so easily left behind.
When Alice discovers she’s pregnant and her estranged sister, Bronwyn, turns up on her doorstep, her carefully built new life begins to unravel. Bronwyn offers an ultimatum: one of her daughters is trying to possess the other, and only Alice has the power to save them. If Alice refuses, Bronwyn will go to their abusive mother and expose her location.
Forced to confront the terrors of her childhood, Alice returns home to face the inheritance of her family curse. Tautly paced and gorgeously written, Glass Girls explores the deep, complicated bonds of family and the shadows that follow us, no matter how far we run.
