The House on the Strand
€ 13.75
ISBN: 9780349020761
FROM THE BESTSELLING WRITER OF REBECCA
'Electric . . . a compelling thriller' BRIDGET COLLINS
'The House on the Strand is prime du Maurier' NEW YORK TIMES
I realized at that moment, more strongly than hitherto, how fantastic, even macabre, was my presence amongst them, unseen, unborn, a freak in time, witness to events that had happened centuries past . . .
When an old friend, Professor Magnus Lane, offers him his home in Cornwall for the summer, Dick Young is relieved to escape his troubles. But Kilmarth and its owner are concealing a secret: Magnus has been experimenting with a new drug that allows the user to slip back in time. Transported back to the fourteenth-century, Dick becomes an invisible witness to a history of intrigue, adultery and murder.
But with each dose of the drug, his addiction to the other world grows stronger - and his estrangement from reality ever more dangerous.
Du Maurier's striking novel weaves together past and present into an addictive time-slip thriller.
'The master of slow-burning menace' STACEY HALLS
'No writer has conveyed the sheer strangeness of being human as well as du Maurier' ANDREW MICHAEL HURLEY
