"An irresistible tale that ventures into the ghostly realms of
psychology, personality and intimacy" from the bestselling author
of The Music Room (San Francisco Chronicle). When their daughter
leaves for college, newly minted empty nesters Cookson and Ellen
Selway decide to escape the eerie quiet of their home and take a
trip to London. But not long after arriving, it becomes apparent
that the Selways have traded one unsettling locale for another.
Like Cookson, a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, the Hotel
Willerton has a disturbing past. Fifty years ago, a young girl fell
to her death from one of the hotel's windows, and her ghost is
haunting Cookson, slowly drawing him back toward the darkness that
once consumed him. As Cookson descends into a spiral of
self-destruction, he is joined by two more apparitions, each
reflecting the worst parts of himself and forcing him to confront
the mistakes of his past that have tormented him for years. From
the celebrated author of the Washington Post Best Book of the Year
Nostalgia and the New York Times-bestselling The Music Room, this
is "a gripping, stylish, consistently entertaining novel" that
offers a literary spin on the traditional ghost story (The Atlanta
Journal-Constitution).
