On a dark midwinter’s night, the lifeless body of a small child is carried into an ancient inn on the river Thames. Hours later, the girl stirs, takes a breath, and returns to life. Three families are keen to claim her, but the return of a lost child is not without complications. A glorious tapestry of a book that combines folklore and science, magic and myth.
Copies of the book are available at the Library.
