The Turn Of The Screw
Trade paperback edition in very good condition.
"There was nothing in the room the next minute but the sunshine and a sense that I must stay."
A very young woman's first job: governess for two weirdly beautiful, strangely distant, oddly silent children, Miles and Flora, at a forlorn estate...an estate haunted by a beckoning evil. Half-seen figures glare from dark towers and dusty windows; silent, foul phantoms day by day, night by night, come closer, ever closer. With growing horror, the helpless governess realizes the fiendish creatures want the children, seeking to corrupt their bodies, possess their minds, own their souls. But worse, much worse, the governess discovers that Miles and Flora have no terror of the lurking evil. For they want the walking dead as badly as the dead want them.
