Alissa ends up at the bottom of a crypt, and whilst Evelin dashes for help Alissa stumbles across something very strange – a child’s body in a coffin which has a large plant sprouting out of it. The plant sets off an entire series of strange events which follow her and Evelin, threatening their friendship and in the end even their lives…

A wonderful (if occasionally confusing) fantasy tale set in the gothic heart of Berlin. Angels, mysterious spirits, ominous changes in the people surrounding Alissa and Evelin all help to give the book a shadowy feel. The author addresses the issues surrounding friendship, loyalty, first love, and having a death in the family and new family members. A superbly chilling tale.
