防詐3要訣：不聽信、不操作、掛斷電話 
關係緊密的英國猶太家庭，當父母懷疑女兒是女巫時，該如何面對？宗教是解藥還是病症本身？
內容簡介
漢娜和埃里克·羅森塔爾是住在倫敦北部的虔誠猶太人，與三個孩子以及埃里克的父親約瑟夫(大屠殺倖存者)一起生活。兩人智力出眾且思想並不傳統，他們相信舊約的字面真理以及神(和邪惡)在日常生活中的存在。當漢娜準備出版一本關於約瑟夫在戰爭蹂躪的歐洲歲月的回憶錄，揭開他在集中營時代的一個可怕秘密時，她完美的女兒艾爾西開始變得不對勁。隨著約瑟夫去世，艾爾西消失了，隨後又以神秘的方式回歸，且變得和之前完全不一樣。
目睹女兒判若兩人的變化，漢娜開始懷疑艾爾西是否太過深入猶太神秘學的迷宮，迷失其中。艾爾西的哥哥托維亞認為真相其實很簡單：妹妹的變化完全就是家庭功能失調造成，這個家庭對儀式、傳統和不受控的野心過度執迷。但誰才是對的？宗教是解藥，還是病症本身？他們又該如何才能阻止黑暗將艾爾西完全吞噬？
* FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD FOR FICTION and DEBUT FICTION *
Hannah and Eric Rosenthal are devout Jews living in North London with their three children and Eric’s father Yosef, a Holocaust survivor. Both intellectually gifted and deeply unconventional, the Rosenthals believe in the literal truth of the Old Testament and in the presence of God (and evil) in daily life. As Hannah prepares to publish an account of Yosef's years in war-torn Europe—unearthing a terrible secret from his time in the camps—Elsie, her perfect daughter, starts to come undone. And then, in the wake of Yosef’s death, she disappears. When she returns, just as mysteriously as she left, she is altered in disturbing ways.

"There is a daring hybrid quality to Fervor, a sense of branching interests that might doom another, less focused book... But Lloyd pulls it off, announcing himself as an exciting voice to watch. . . Even beyond the structural cleverness and the way it plays with perspective, Fervor succeeds on the strength of Lloyd’s elegant, confident language. The book is driven by a constant push-pull between the sacred and secular, and Lloyd’s prose reflects that with sentences that feel like they could simultaneously conjure up a spirit and captivate a very human audience. His voice is practiced, smart and spellbinding, making Fervor a book that fans of family dramas and horror stories alike will happily devour." —BookPage (starred review)
"Toby Lloyd confronts—somehow both head-on and sidelong—the awful and often blinding trauma of the Holocaust... What kind of novel is this, I found myself thinking as I turned its pages—surely one of the best questions a book can provoke. Is it a family story, is it a story about history, is it a full-on horror story? It is all these things at once, and it also asks, with urgency, who has the right to tell the story in the first place... This is a stylish, puzzling, mystical novel that offers no easy answers to how its characters—or its readers—might react in the wake of destruction. Inviting discussion rather than providing resolution, Fervor marks the arrival of an intriguing and intelligent new voice." —Financial Times
“A gripping and powerful story of a British Jewish family visited by ghosts and divided by politics. . . Fans of Isaac Bashevis Singer and Stephen King alike will thrill to this superb modern folk tale.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Lloyd’s suspenseful debut novel propels the reader deep into the heart of an idiosyncratic—and decidedly dysfunctional—family. . . Infused with motifs from Jewish folklore and classic horror films, Fervour animates themes of betrayal, belief and the past’s long tail." —The Guardian
