Lena, a successful but disillusioned and lonely woman, returns to the remote mountain village where she grew up, hoping to find some peace while taking care of her elderly mother. Her arrival stirs up the local gossip - as does the presence of another outsider, a recluse, who lives in a cabin above the village, keeping company only with animals. Rumored to have magical powers, the stranger piques Lena's curiosity. But when their paths cross, old ghosts are awakened, demanding a ritual that may unleash a deadly force.Resonating with the themes of homecoming, belonging, and facing memories and grief, this short novel takes place in an unnamed village and country. It could read like an allegory, except that the scenery and characters are specific and vivid, including the animals, who play distinct and sometimes humorous supporting roles.A story with a touch of magic.Milena Moser, author, Fool's Journey.
