Nominee for the Locus Award. THE TRUE STORY OF THE BRONTE SISTERS, WHICH ONLY TIM POWERS CAN TELL. It's a ghost story. This is a story about werewolves and what happens at night. This is a story about an ill-fated country, about the impenetrable moorlands of Northern England, brilliantly described in "Wuthering Heights". It's also the story of a real family that is destined to deal with this enchanted, dark and dangerous world. When young Emily Bronte helps an injured man she finds at the foot of an ancient pagan shrine on the remote Yorkshire moors, their lives are closely intertwined. He is Alcuin Curzon, an embittered member of a sect seeking to eradicate the resurgent plague of lycanthropy in Europe and Northern England. And the man who unwittingly brought the demonic werewolf god to Yorkshire forty years ago, who possessed Emily's beloved but narrow—minded and dissolute brother, is her own father, the vicar of the church in the village of Haworth. And now Curzon sees a terrible danger in the Bronte family. Despite such strong differences, Emily and Alcuin join the fight against werewolves, turn to pagan gods and even save each other from the temptations of the demons of the moors. Two forced allies in a final battle that will sweep from the haunted village of Haworth to a monstrous sanctuary far away on the moors. People who stood up against an ancient force that could take not only their lives, but also their souls. "A must-read for fans of horror, folklore, and anyone who loves atmospheric stories with beautiful characters." — SBTB "Decadent Gothic Candy". — Sylvia Moreno-Garcia, "An interesting look at the Bronte family, and an original supernatural story." — Grimdark Magazine "The author is a master of the secret chronicle, weaving the fantastic and magical into the gaps of recorded history." — The Fantasy Hive"Powers, reliably exploring everything we can know about Emily Bronte, introduces us to this extraordinary writer in all her complexity with the help of imagination." — Catholic World Report.
