Sleepers in the Snow - Joanne Harris

A gripping and powerful supense story of love, loss, and the mysteries of memory by internationally bestselling author Joanne Harris. nOut on the moor, in the snow, a house stands beneath a pylon. It is a house full of memories, and full of old things.

And, in the dark, when the pylon sings in the wind, it is a house full of ghosts and fading memories . . .

n n The house, Kirkhill, has a new occupant--just moved in, fresh from a bitter divorce and looking for a fresh start. The moor is the perfect place for it: isolated, beautiful in the changing seasons, peaceful, and with just enough of the previous owners belongings that it's a perfectly self-contained and cosy home. n n Only as the nights start to draw in, and the weather takes a turn, so does the house.

The cosy isolation becomes menacing, animals begin acting strangely, and it seems someone could be watching the house . . .

and the diaries of the previous owners begin to reveal a terrible tragedy which befell Kirkhill - one which its new occupant may be unable to escape . . .n
