About
Unlock the door to a terrifying and wondrous parallel universe where nothing is as it seems.
When a young Oxford graduate returns to his ancestral estate, a seemingly innocent library mirror transports him into an unpredictable dimension. Guided by Mr. Raven-a shape-shifting librarian who digs up literal memories as a sexton of the dead-our protagonist embarks on a perilous metaphysical journey. Caught in a sprawling realm where dimensions intersect, he navigates treacherous moors crawling with moon-fearing monsters, a dark forest haunted by warring phantom armies, and the chilling enigma of an undead woman leading the charge. To find his way home, he must survive the unearthly terrors of the Bad Burrow and untangle the ancient mysteries of his own soul.
