内容简介:
Sister Agnes is sorting out the library of the nearly defunct Order in Bermondsey, when the Hawker archive, books on spells and magic as well as hand-written journals, catches her eye. These tell the story of Alice, her husband Nicolas and their son who died in infancy. Alice's story seems to haunt the present. The building is now an NHS center for the mentally ill, and Agnes is drawn into the predicament of Tina-Marie, who fears for her daughter Leila. When horrible and unexplained things start happening, Agnes is convinced someone is after something more than the obvious in the Hawker archives...
