This would have to be one of the best books which I have ever read. It's so intruiging and had me guessing the end right up until the final page. Fantastic ( )

As shadows darken mystery deepens.

'Wood never dies. Not really ... Sometimes, when I touch it, I know that I can bring it back ...there are some things about wood that never die, and I think perhaps it would he better if they did

Regan is an acclaimed sculptor, renowned for her sensuous work in wood. When her relationship with the much younger Jason Sullivan ends abruptly, Regan retreats to an isolated cottage to prepare for a new exhibition.

Almost at once she begins to fall under the spell of the trees recurring dreams and inexplicable lapses in time inspire her, yet leave her exhausted and strangely disturbed. As she immerses herself in her work, a surprising new relationship begins to develop with Liam, the estate handyman sent to repair the cottage.

But as he watches the shadows deepen around Regan, Liam becomes increasingly concerned. When they discover the bizarre fate of generations of Sullivan women, his concern turns to fear. But Liam has secrets of his own, secrets that threaten his new bond with Regan, a bond that may be her only chance to escape the gathering shadows.
