β¦ Synopsis
'Captivating, sinister and mysterious. I couldn't put it down!'
Helen Sedgwick, author of The Comet Seekers
For Ella Aldridge, a sinister encounter on platform three is about to change everything. Forced to question her life by a shadowy ticket inspector, Ella finds herself spiralling into a mysterious world. Portentous signs appear from nowhere, thoughts are stored on memory sticks, and speeding express trains may be more than they seem. As she begins to lose her grip on reality, Ella embarks on an extraordinary journey that touches everyone around her.
The Unravelling is about the myth and magic of everyday life, and the sacrifices we make for what really matters.
'Spellbinding, edging towards dark but still humorous. A star cast of believable and engaging characters who populate this magical-realism tale.'
Debbie Ross, author of Immersion
