Book description
A psychological thriller, a desperately moving and ultimately uplifting
tale of childhood innocence. . . As small children, growing up at the
property called Abyssinia, two sisters played with their dolls house
together, side by side, always. Grace loved Mary and Mary loved Grace.
But inseparable bonds can be unexpectedly shattered. When this happens
to Grace, she is plunged into a dark and mesmerising world, a world full
of bells and the ringing sky, of odd little children, strange events and
frighteningly bizarre grown ups. '. . . wonderfully atmospheric. . .
brilliantly evokes the often-shadowy place of childhood. . .' - The Age
'Ursula Dubosarsky is the most graceful, most original writer for young
people in Australia - probably in the world.' - Sonya Hartnett
