Devil's Day - Andrew Michael Hurley

. .

Résumé :
The Oxbarrows live in a small village on the Lancashire moors. The father, Richard, has recently died, but his thirteen-year-old daughter Rosie refuses to believe it. When a recently retired psychiatrist is persuaded by an old colleague to try to help the family through their grief, he finds himself caught up in the customs of the remote community, and an older way of doing things...

Gripping, unsettling and beautifully written, Andrew Michael Hurley's new novel asks how we deal with the monsters of our own minds, and how far we will go to belong.
