Über diesen Titel

From the million-copy Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop!

In a quiet village in Ireland, a mysterious local myth is about to change everything…

One hundred years ago, Anna, a young farm girl, volunteers to help an intriguing American visitor translate fairy stories from Irish to English. But all is not as it seems and Anna soon finds herself at the heart of a mystery that threatens her very way of life.

In New York in the present day, Sarah Harper boards a plane bound for the West Coast of Ireland. But once there, she finds she has unearthed dark secrets – secrets that tread the line between the everyday and the otherworldly, the seen and the unseen.

With a taste for the magical in everyday life, Evie Woods's latest novel is full of ordinary characters with extraordinary tales to tell.

I was expecting something else entirely and was pleasantly surprised. Love the happy ending. I wish there was a bit more.

Another good one from Evie Woods

Der Roman ist gut gelesen, allerdings fehlt es an Spannung in der Geschichte. Stellenweise ist es langatmig weiterzuhören, das kann die Sprecherin auch nicht wiedergutmachen.

Nett, aber nicht herausragend
