The Raconteur's Commonplace Book: A Greenglass House Story

內容簡介

內容簡介 In this standalone mystery set in the world of the New York Times bestselling Greenglass House by an Edgar Award-winning author, a group of strangers trapped in an otherworldly inn slowly reveal their secrets, proving that nothing is what it seems and there's always more than one side to the story. The rain hasn't stopped for a week, and the twelve guests of the Blue Vein Tavern are trapped by flooded roads and the rising Skidwrack River. Among them are a ship's captain, tattooed twins, a musician, and a young girl traveling on her own. To pass the time, they begin to tell stories--each a different type of folklore--that eventually reveal more about their own secrets than they intended. As the rain continues to pour down--an uncanny, unnatural amount of rain--the guests begin to realize that the entire city is in danger, and not just from the flood. But they have only their stories, and one another, to save them. Will it be enough? "Will dazzle seasoned Milford fans and kindle new ones." (Publishers Weekly starred review) A Captivating Storytelling Anthology: Twelve guests are trapped in the Blue Vein Tavern by a strange flood. To pass the time, they tell tales--but each story reveals far more about the teller than they ever intended. Interconnected Character Mysteries: As the captain, the twins, the musician, and a girl traveling alone share their stories, a larger puzzle begins to unfold, tying their fates together. A Cozy Fantasy Mystery: Perfect for middle grade readers who love putting clues together in a world where nothing is quite what it seems and magic feels just around the corner. Atmospheric and Uncanny Setting: With the unnatural rain showing no signs of stopping and the Skidwrack River rising, the inn itself becomes a character brimming with secrets. Inspired by Folklore and Legends: Each guest shares a different type of folklore, from ghost stories to trickster tales, weaving a rich tapestry that holds the key to their survival.
