'Francesca Reece is a devastatingly compelling new voice in
literary fiction' Louise O'Neill _______ Somewhere, in a box in
Margot Yates' attic there's a video of Gethin by the lake at Ty
Gwydr. He's young - nineteen, maybe twenty. It's late spring and
dusk, and a low sun leaks white light into the horizon behind the
dark fringe of trees. Olwen is filming. Gethin narrows his eyes at
the camera. Her bodiless voice says to him, I love it here. He
says, good. This place is ours. When Geth sees the glass house on
the lake for the first time, its strange beauty becomes so fully
embedded in his imagination, that he finds it difficult to see
himself apart from it. With absent owners who leave the house
empty, Geth finds that he can sleep there, swim there, spend all of
his days there. It is his, or at least, it feels that way to Geth.
That is until the owners decide to sell, sending Geth into
freefall. And when he discovers that Olwen, his teenage love who
left him and their small town in north Wales for a new life in
London, has returned with her husband, Geth and Olwen will find
themselves pulled back into the past and what could have been - or
still could be. But when mysterious messages start arriving at the
house, Geth and Olwen must question whether this is the love story
they thought it was, or whether there might be something altogether
more sinister lurking beneath the surface.
