About the book:
Marina has vanished to a world of gods and demons just when her family need her most.
Itโs the week before Halloween and Marina is about to turn thirteen. Her father died a year ago. Her mother has strangely fallen asleep and no-one can wake her. She is sent to live with her mysterious grandmother, Ursula who tells her that that you can enter a strange world between the ever falling rain in the west of Ireland. Marina enters a haunting watery world full of strange creatures, demons and gods. Meanwhile, in our world a strange sleeping sickness has taken over.
A haunting fantasy thriller that is also about grief and letting go of the demons inside yourself.
