β¦ Synopsis
A dazzling story told in verse, of sixteen-year-old Declan Lynch and the girl whose centuries-old voice rings in his head.
One day, Declan Lynch, a regular teenager, starts hearing a girlβs voice inside his head. Eventually, he even begins to see her. Though heβs not certain the girl, Rebecca, is real, Declan finds himself falling for her. She shows him visions of places and people he has never seen β places he feels compelled to find in hopes of meeting her.
His quest takes him to County Sligo, Ireland, and its βthin places,β spots where two worlds, two times or places, seem almost to touch. His slightly crazy Uncle Seamus takes him in, as Declanβs search has him wondering which world he belongs in β his, or the one belonging to a girl who might not even be real.
