Grief calls to grief and sorrow to sorrow. A haunting tale of love and death and isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing the death of his parents in an automated traffic accident, John Riley is sent to live with his only surviving relative; an ageing great aunt who lives in an old and isolated farm house far from the city and all his social contacts. There he finds a mystery: a girl who plays the piano in a locked room by moonlight. He follows her to a secret room, an old book of poetry and the tale of a long past tragedy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"My aunt lived on an old farm, close to the sea. The farm house had been built in the nineteenth century in imitation of some minor Scottish castle. It was a rambling place of crumbling stone and cracked plaster, with ornamental towers and arched doorways. The kind of place that history buffs get all excited about – mainly because they don’t have to live there. I went from crowds of friends to – what? Sheep? Maybe. Seagulls? Perhaps, but certainly not people. All in all, I might as well have walked through the back of a wardrobe and into Narnia.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis story comes from a poem which in turn comes from a dream. I can still see Sarah, plain as moonlight, playing on her piano.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joseph H.J.
