Description

Ireland, 1890: two ruthless immortals prowl the theatre district in search of food for their 'Angel'. Ancient, pitiless and caring for none but their own twisted family, they will stop at nothing to maintain their grip on life. A seamstress, the young man who loves her and a penniless American magician soon find themselves imprisoned in a snow-bound country estate, the latest additions to the family's warped collection. Here, they are nothing but food, nothing but entertainment, and soon they will be nothing at all. Far from their homes and fighting for survival, Tina, Joe and Harry will come to understand that far more is at stake than their lives. A rich and provocative feat of the imagination from the creator of the Moorehawke Trilogy.

Author description

Born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, Celine Kiernan has spent the majority of her working life in the film business. She was trained at the Sullivan Bluth Studios, and her career as a classical feature character animator spanned over seventeen years. She spent most of her time working between Germany, Ireland and the USA...Celine wrote her first novel at the age of eleven (it was excruciatingly bad), and hasn't stopped writing or drawing since. She has a peculiar weakness for graphic novels as, like animation, they combine the two things she loves to do the most: drawing and storytelling...Her popular Moorehawke Trilogy has been internationally acclaimed, and her novel Taken Away was the first book to ever take out both the Children's Books Ireland Book of the Year Award and Children's Choice Award in a single year.
