Sheep - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

James, a builder, and Adèle, a promising artist, arrived in west Wales hoping that a change of scene would help them come to terms with the death of their daughter. Together with Sam, their young son, they settled into Ty-Gwyneth, the ramshackle farmhouse which James had been commissioned to repair. Its former occupants, they were appalled to discover, had fallen prey to drugs, madness, incarceration and murder. During the course of his renovations, James dug up some very odd-looking bones. Sam had a fall and saw something which inexplicably linked the present to the past. Adèle's painting became stranger and stranger - and so did Adèle. In the disastrous aftermath of supper with Lewyn, a nearby farmer, James decided to investigate the contents of the freezer... Simon Maginn, in his remarkable first novel, uses a deceptively casual narrative to build layer upon layer of horror. A powerful new talent has emerged to join the ranks of Stephen King, James Herbert and Ramsey Campbell.
