The inaugural winner of England's prestigious Orange Prize, A Spell
of Winter is a compelling turn-of-the-century tale of innocence
corrupted by secrecy, and the grace of second chances. Cathy and
her brother, Rob, have forged a passionate refuge against the
terror of loneliness and family secrets, but their sibling love
becomes fraught with danger. As Catherine fights free of her dark
present and haunting past, the spell of winter that has held her in
its grasp begins to break. "Dunmore touches everything: skin, bone,
frozen earth." -- Los Angeles Times Book Review "[A] literary
page-turner." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "[A] modern
Gothic." -- Library Journal
