- Book Synopsis
- Foreword by Katherine Stansfield. The latest title in the Library of Wales series. Illuminated by the distant glow of the Welsh firebombers, Ann' s tenure at the hotel, which is full of secret passageways and inexplicable voids, pipes and sounds from the attic, entangles her life into that of its strange inhabitants; who include an outrageous con man and a grimly funny drunk. The hotel' s insolent staff and a fanatic nationalist lure her further into a mysterious shadowland, where the hotel assumes a character of its own and a life riven with nefarious activities.
