She's all-but-invisible to her best friend Tristán. Then Tristán discovers his new neighbour is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary auteur claims he has a way to change their lives - even if his tales of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like fantasy.

Mexiko, 1950. Ein verstörender Brief führt die junge Noemí in das entlegene Herrenhaus High Place in den mexikanischen Bergen: Ihre frisch vermählte Cousine Catalina behauptet, ihr Mann Virgil Doyle wolle sie vergiften. Das Ansehen der englischen Familie Doyle ist längst verblasst und ihr Herrenhaus zu einem düsteren Ort geworden. Doch Noemí hat keine Angst – weder vor dem eitlen Ehegatten ihrer Cousine noch vor Howard Doyle, dem widerwärtigen Familienoberhaupt. Aber als Noemí herausfindet, was auf High Place vor sich geht, ist es zu spät: Sie ist längst in einem Netz aus Gewalt und Wahnsinn gefangen.

It's an ordinary assignment, nothing more. The cargo? Fifty boxes filled with Transylvanian soil. The route? From Varna to Whitby. The Demeter has made many trips like this. The captain has handled dozens of crews.

She is the adventurer of the family. Her brother, the gentle dreamer. Even as they bond over folktales and hold each other close, their world has never felt so dangerous.

As the darkest of legends becomes real, a young girl will do anything to save her brother’s life.

When nature gets up close and personal, it isn’t always pretty. A fallen tree sparks a poisonous feud between neighbors. A child searches the darkness for the gleam of a tiger’s teeth. A woman holds off a colony of oddly relentless prairie dogs. In unsettling stories that range from horror to magical realism, award-winning authors lay bare the secrets hidden in the land.

Una novela terroríficamente brillante. Tras recibir una extraña carta de su prima recién casada, Noemí Taboada se dirige a High Place, una casa en el campo en México, sin saber qué encontrará allí. Noemí no parece tener dotes de salvadora: es glamurosa, más acostumbrada a asistir a cócteles que a las tareas de detective. Pero también es fuerte, inteligente y no tiene miedo: ni del nuevo marido de su prima, un inglés amenazante y seductor; ni de su padre, el antiguo patriarca que parece fascinado por Noemí; ni de la casa, que empieza a invadir los sueños de Noemí con visiones de sangre y fatalidad.
