The House at the End of the Sea Zusammenfassung

The House at the End of the Sea Victoria M. Adams

Saffi doesn't want her new life, living with her dad, little brother and old-fashioned grandparents in their B&B by the sea. She is grieving for her mum and longs for things to go back to normal. But this new home is anything but normal: the walls change colour, a face appears in the mirror, and the pantry is suddenly filled with fancy food. When a party of extraordinary visitors arrive at midnight, Saffi begins to realise that her family has a dark, magical secret. It will take all her bravery to discover the truth and find a way into another world... Cover art by Sharon King-Chai

The House at the End of the Sea Bewertungen

"A delightfully eerie mystery that explores complicated family histories. A twisty tale of fairy folklore and what it means to stand betwixt and between" -- Skye McKenna
"Majestic, in the tradition of Garner and Cooper. A debut with real magic in its pages" -- Sinead O'Hart
"What a gorgeous story! The setting felt inventive, while leaning into traditional folktales. The family dynamic was complex and nuanced, but totally sympathetically done. I was gripped by the story and characters and raced through the final chapters. A brilliant book for young readers" -- Elen Caldecott
"Set in a quiet English seaside town, this warm fantasy rises like a wave, with grief, family, and colonialism as backdrops to dangerous bargains with magic. Starring a brave girl trying to both discover the truth and protect her younger brother, this delightful contemporary take on fairy legends also poses questions of how to recognize - and atone for - a troubled past" -- Diane Magras
"I LOVED this book - a magical tale weaving together fairy and folk tales and posing questions about colonial legacies, families, and friendships" -- Sarah Brooks

Über Victoria M. Adams

Victoria M. Adams spent her childhood bouncing between Cyprus, Canada and the US with her Iranian mother, trying to achieve first place in the Most Visas Acquired Before Age Eighteen sweepstakes. As an adult, she carried on the nomadic family tradition by adding France and New Zealand to the mix, where she worked as an animator, copywriter, tutor and story coach, in no particular order. Somewhere along the way, she acquired a BA in Film and an MA in Creative Writing from Birkbeck College. She currently teaches Creative Writing at City Lit and shares her London home with two humans and a feckless cat.
