From the bestselling author of BEHIND HER EYES comes a beautiful, harrowing, heartbreaking story, filled with exquisite truths.
'A beautiful story, honestly told' says Neil Gaiman.
Tonight is a special terrible night.
A woman sits at her father's bedside, watching the clock tick away the last hours of his life. Her brothers and sisters - all broken, their bonds fragile - have been there for the past week, but now she is alone.
And that's when it always comes.
The clock ticks, the darkness beckons.
If it comes at all.
Genre: Horror
