In 1928 the car in which a young Englishman is driving through the French Pyrenees spins off the road during a snowstorm, seeking help he stumbles through woods into a remote village, where all is not as it seems, people behave oddly, time plays strange tricks . . . and so begins a delicious spooky tale set in the author's beloved Languedoc haunted by the lives and fate of the Cathars.
