Can we believe in magic and spells? Can we put our faith in
science? A young mother married to a scientist fears for her
children's safety as the natural world around her becomes ever more
uncertain. Until, that is, she meets a charismatic stranger who
seems to offer a different kind of power... But is he a saviour or
a frightening danger? And, as her life is overturned, what is
happening to her children whom she vowed to keep safe? Why is her
son Danny now acting so strangely? In this haunting, urgent and
timely novel, Elizabeth Baines brings her customary searing insight
to the problems of sorting our rational from our irrational fears
and of bringing children into a newly precarious world. In prose
that spins its own spell she exposes our hidden desires and the
scientific and magical modes of thinking which have got us to where
we are now.
