WINNER OF THE DESMOND ELLIOTT PRIZE An imaginative, mysterious
modern fairytale from the Women's Prize-shortlisted author of
Unsettled Ground 1976: Peggy Hillcoat is eight. She spends her
summer camping with her father, playing her beloved record of The
Railway Children and listening to her mother's grand piano, but her
pretty life is about to change. Her survivalist father, who has
been stockpiling provisions for the end which is surely coming
soon, takes her from London to a cabin in a remote European forest.
There he tells Peggy the rest of the world has disappeared. Her
life is reduced to a piano which makes music but no sound, a forest
where all that grows is a means of survival. And a tiny wooden hut
that is Everything. 'Fuller handles the tension masterfully in this
grown-up thriller of a fairytale, full of clues, questions and
intrigue' The Times 'Bewitching . . . a rivetingly dark tale'
Sunday Express 'Extraordinary . . . From the opening sentence it is
gripping' Sunday Times
