The Blackhouse
あらすじ・解説
From the author of the “dark and devious...beautifully written” (Stephen King) Mirrorland comes an “atmospheric, thrilling, and utterly captivating” (Booklist) gothic tale set on a remote Scottish island where the locals are hiding a deadly secret.
Maggie Mackay has been haunted her entire life. No matter what she does, she can’t shake the sense that something is wrong with her. And maybe something is…
When she was five years old, Maggie announced that a man on the remote island of Kilmeray in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides—a place she’d never visited—was murdered. Her unfounded claim drew media attention and turned the locals against each other, creating rifts that never mended.
Now, nearly twenty years later, Maggie is determined to discover what really happened, and what the villagers are hiding. But everyone has secrets, and some are deadly. As she gets closer to the horrifying truth, the island’s legendary and violent storms begin to rage again and Maggie’s own life is in danger…
Unnerving, enthralling, and filled with gothic suspense, The Blackhouse is a spectacularly sinister tale listeners won’t soon forget.
批評家のレビュー
"Eilidh Beaton performs the majority of this intense goth mystery. When Maggie was a little girl, she believed she was the reincarnation of a murdered man named Andrew. Years later, she travels to Kilmeray in the Outer Hebrides to investigate Andrew's life and death. Beaton clearly signals Maggie's struggles with bipolar disorder and her grief over her mother's recent death, as well as the islanders' various reactions to her probes into the past, especially a terrible storm that killed two residents. Beaton's well-done accents and pronunciation of Gaelic words help transport listeners to the remote island. Joe McFadden convincingly performs the sections told by one of the storm's victims, a troubled man whose failing sheep farm and unresolved childhood issues led to his mental unraveling."
