Lost Girls - Pyper Andrew - 2000

DESCRIPTION

Covers have no creasing. Corners of covers are lightly bumped. Spine is uncreased. Pages are lightly tanned. Criminal defence lawyer Bartholomew Crane is despatched to a small lakeside town in Northern Ontario with a brief to defend a schoolteacher accused of murdering two teenaged girls. He assumes it will be an open-and-shut case and that he'll be back carousing in Toronto before the month is out, for the girls' bodies have never been found and the Crown's evidence against the teacher is scant. But the deeper Barth digs into the teacher's - and the town's - past, the more disturbed and distressed he becomes. Peculiar visions haunt his imagination; telephones ring ceaselessly in the dead of night; the gargoyles above his hotel's entrance seem to be watching him; and sometimes, out of the furthest corner of his eye - if he looks hard enough - he can see two identically dressed girls following wherever he goes ...Is his mind playing tricks on him? Or has Barth been dragged into the town's spiralling collective hysteria? Quantity Available: 1. Category: Fiction; General; ISBN: 0330390406. ISBN/EAN: 9780330390408. Inventory No: 10054065.
