Northshine
Autor Amy Barryen Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 mar 2027
A missing sister…
In the depths of the Norwegian polar nights, fifteen-year-old Tana disappears. Her three sisters are haunted by the last argument they had with her, and her parents' marriage disintegrates in the wake of her loss.
A family curse…
Eighteen years later in Nantucket, Tana's sister Mira cannot shake the memories, and when a new love blossoms with a man who remembers her family, she finds herself torn between the past and the present. Did Tana come to harm in the arctic wilderness, lured by the shimmer of the Northshine in the darkness? Or was her disappearance their family’s fault, caused by the curse that their mother claims has followed them through the generations?
A secret waiting to be told…
Centuries before, a woman named Brigid is accused of witchcraft. What links her fate to the missing sister? Why does Tana's mother suffer from memories of drowning? And will Mira be able to connect two mysteries before the Northshine claims another Harkness woman?
A dual narrative, sweeping mystery with heart, Northshine is the first in a new quartet following the Harkness sisters and the mystery of their family...

Recenzii
'Northshine is utterly mesmerising. It has everything I love in a novel: a searing, heartfelt romance, a captivating mystery, a witchy historical thread and a set of sisters I really cared about. A gorgeous novel; I was hooked from first page to last.' CLARE LESLIE HALL, bestselling author of Broken Country
'What a delightful story! Utterly charming and seductively atmospheric, Amy Barry has imagined a world in Northshine that is both familiar and dream-like. Sit back with a warm cocoa and be transported to the eerie northern lights of Korsvei or the windswept sand dunes of picture-perfect Nantucket, as Barry weaves her storytelling seamlessly in the liminal spaces between before and now. There are witchy charms and curses and old books and long-held family secrets to crack. But at its heart Northshine is a novel about family - about the things that rip us apart, but also bind us back up together. I cannot wait for more witchy goodness from Amy Barry.' MADELEINE CLEARY, bestselling author of The Butterfly Women
'Northshine is unputdownable; lush interiors, dramatic landscapes and perfect pacing will have you flipping pages to learn the meaning of Mira’s talent for finding lost things, the mysterious buttons pressed into the foundations of the family estate, and the cursed fate of Brigid Hayes, chased out of Salem and ‘swum’ to test her guilt as a witch, who seems to be haunting them all.' MELISSA ASHLEY, bestselling author of The Bees and the Orange Tree
