You can't stop until you're through!

I just read this book in German (I am a German exchange student, 16 years of age) over the last weekend. I couln't lay it out of my hand until I knew what really happened. I am a big fan of Barbara Wood's books, but this one bount me more than I could imagine. It absorbed me so much. I advise it to everyone, no matter which age or what kind of books prefered. This one is incredible!

A parallel world of today and yesterday under one roof

Why is this book out of print? Barbara Wood bring out such an unusual storyline in this haunting tale. A young woman goes back to her grand mothers house in England to what she thinks is to be a boring visit with an old and dying grandfather. The grandfathers' family is taboo and never discussed, it's dark secrets never revealed, until they start playing their life out infront of her eyes. Is she going mad? Eventually she doesn't care, because the lives she sees...... well that would be telling, wouldn't it! I thought it was a good story and a great read!
