Description
"The gradual but compelling unraveling of this family mystery captivated me." --Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award-winning author of Hiroshima Boy and Clark and Division
"This book is a true delight to the senses!" --Keri Wilt, speaker, historian, and great-great-granddaughter of Frances Hodgson Burnett, author of The Secret Garden A Modern Gothic Retelling of The Secret Garden. Still grieving her mother's death, American photographer Mari Lennox is sent to document Yanagi Inn, an old, dilapidated ryokan outside Kyoto, Japan. By day, Mari explores the inn and its grounds, taking striking photographs and uncovering layers of mystery shrouding the old resort--including an overgrown, secret garden on a forbidden island. At night, eerie weeping (which no one else seems to hear) keeps her awake."The gradual but compelling unraveling of this family mystery captivated me." --Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award-winning author of Hiroshima Boy and Clark and Division
