Más información sobre el libro
This breathtaking novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult explores the question: Do we love across time, or in spite of it? Set in present-day Vermont, the story begins when an old man puts a piece of land up for sale, prompting protests from the local Abenaki Indian tribe, who claim it as a burial ground. As supernatural events disrupt the town of Comtosook, a ghost hunter is hired by the developer to dispel the residents' fears. Enter Ross Wakeman, a troubled drifter who has repeatedly flirted with death since his fiancée's tragic car accident eight years ago. Despite his attempts to escape life, he finds himself drawn to the town and its mysteries. In Comtosook, Ross encounters Lia Beaumont, a mysterious woman also searching for something beyond life and death. Their connection sparks an enthralling journey through themes of love, fate, and a crime of passion. Picoult, hailed as a master storyteller, pushes readers to confront the unthinkable while delving into Vermont's eugenics project of the 1920s and 30s. This eerie and engrossing tale examines the haunting aspects of our past and the enduring nature of love.
