This is an ex-lib but book and wrapper remain in a very good condition - shortlisted for the Bookshelf/Arrow Award **** A misty tale of doomed mythic/mystic love in rural Cornwall - The story begins when motherless waif Hester, starved and terrified, arrives at the bustling, cheerful home of her kind uncle Garfield and his large family. The Garfields give Heater tender care; she responds with devotion. Yet there's always something strange about Hester, her determination to acquire a grandfather (even a dead one), her climb up to the church tower, her oddly intense communion with neighbor Joseph..... >>> This book was amazing, I couldn't put it down. I found myself crying whilst reading this which was odd because I have never cried in a book. A strange story but a good one. (Someome on Goodreads)
