Two women are drawn toward a hidden loch where it’s rumored the thing you’ve lost can be returned—at a deadly cost—in this stunning novel exploring love, grief, and fate, perfect for readers of Alix E. Harrow, Erin Morgenstern, and Emma Törzs.

A lost lake.

Toby has recently lost her husband Ben, and all sense of direction. She knows only that she must still care for their son, Ciaran, and that she’s haunted by an impossible childhood memory: standing over a “drowned village,” filled with treasures. So when she uncovers someone online who also claims to have seen this strange place, hidden deep in the Scottish Highlands, Toby knows what she should do.

A deadly curse.

Seventeen-year-old Ash is desperate after the death of her mother, until she stumbles into the mysterious Half-Way House. Here, she finds herself a caretaker of the Mirror Halls: the shadowy realm between the sleeping and the dead. As she learns to walk amongst the Dreamers, she begins to suspect that her discovery of the Halls – and the secrets they conceal – is no accident.

How much will you risk?

But some places are hidden for a reason. As the two women embark on their separate journeys to the truth, they soon find themselves entangled in a mystery far darker and deeper than either could have imagined. Masterfully blending contemporary fantasy into the forgotten corners of our own world, in the spirit of Alix E. Harrow, Erin Morgenstern, Emma Törzs, and Gareth Brown, The Mirror Halls is an unforgettable exploration of what it means to dream, to die, and to truly live.
