Some Kind of Fairy Tale

Twenty years ago, sixteen-year-old Tara Martin disappeared from a small town in the heart of England. Now, her sudden return and the mind-bending tale of where she’s been will challenge our very perception of the truth. For twenty years after Tara Martin disappeared from her small English town, her parents and her brother, Peter, lived in denial. And then suddenly on Christmas Day, the doorbell rings at her parents’ home and there, dishevelled and slightly peculiar-looking, Tara stands. It’s a miracle, but alarm bells are ringing for Peter. Tara’s story does not add up. And, incredibly, she barely looks a day older than when she vanished. Award winning author Graham Joyce is a master of exploring new realms of understanding that exist between dreams and reality, between the known and unknown. This is a one-of-a-kind journey every bit as magical as its title implies—and as real and unsentimental as the world around us.
