A twisting, convoluted gothic triumph from the Queen of modern gothic.

Wilder Harlow had something stolen from him. A story, the tale of The Dagger Man and events of his childhood that have haunted him forever. Now, he’s returned to Castine to write his final story - and get his revenge.

Sublimely told and twists upon twists of layers - I loved this book.
