![]() I found this a beautifully written ghost story that utilises Kate Mosse's on-going theme of the importance of landscape and 'place' in history and human consciousness. By the time dawn breaks, he will have stumbled across a tragic mystery that goes back through the centuries. Over the course of one night, Fabrissa and Freddie share their stories of remembrance and loss. There he meets Fabrissa, a beautiful local woman, also mourning a lost generation. Shaken, he stumbles into the woods, emerging by a tiny village. During a snowstorm, his car spins off the mountain road. In the winter of 1928, still seeking resolution, Freddie is travelling through the French Pyrenees - another region that has seen too much bloodshed over the years. Unable to cope with his grief, Freddie has spent much of the time since in a sanatorium. In Freddie Watson's case, it took his beloved brother and, at times, his peace of mind. It robbed a generation of friends, lovers and futures. ![]() Genre: Historical Mystery Period Fiction. ![]()
