The Taxidermist's Daughter

«The Taxidermist's Daughter» — a new gripping gothic novel by the bestselling author of «Labyrinth», «Sanctuary», «Fire Chambers», and «Winter Ghosts», now available in Russian for the first time. 1912, Sussex. At the age of twelve, Connie Gifford fell from... a ladder and survived only by a miracle. Now she is twenty-two, but she still remembers nothing of her life before the terrible incident, except for vague, fragmented memories. Connie lives with her fallen father, once a famous taxidermist, in a secluded house on the sea-flooded coastal wastelands. One day, the girl finds the body of a drowned woman in a nearby stream, and gradually her memory begins to return, but these memories are no less dangerous than the rising water threatening the Gifford house and its inhabitants. The novel «The Taxidermist's Daughter» will appeal to lovers of dark atmospheric historical detective stories. Kate Moss continues the tradition of gothic literature begun by such renowned writers as Charlotte Brontë, Mary Shelley, Edgar Allan Poe, and Daphne du Maurier.
