Helen Grant

    1 gennaio 1964

    Helen Grant crea avvincenti romanzi per giovani adulti che si addentrano negli inquietanti regni dell'orrore soprannaturale e del mistero urbano. La sua scrittura è caratterizzata da un'atmosfera palpabile, che attira i lettori in narrazioni ricche di suspense e segreti oscuri. Intreccia abilmente elementi dell'inquietante e della tensione psicologica, esplorando i confini della paura. La voce distintiva di Grant risiede nella sua capacità di scovare le ansie nascoste che si celano sotto la superficie dell'ordinario.

      Ghost
    • On the day Katharina Linden disappears, Pia is the last person to see her. Terror is spreading through the town. How could a ten-year-old girl vanish in a place where everybody knows everybody else? Pia is determined to find out what happened to Katharina. But then the next girl disappears...

      The Vanishing of Katharina Linden
    • After Pia’s grandmother dies in a freak accident, the neighbors in her little German hometown of Bad Münstereifel glance at Pia with wary eyes. But then something else captures the community’s attention: the vanishing of Katharina Linden. Katharina was last seen at a parade, dressed as Snow White. Then, like a character in a Grimm’s fairy tale, she disappeared. Ten-year-old Pia and her only friend, the unpopular StinkStefan, suspect that Katharina has been spirited away by the supernatural. Their investigation is inspired by such local legends as that of Unshockable Hans, visited by witches in the form of cats, or of the knight whose son is doomed to hunt forever. Then another girl vanishes, and Pia is plunged into a new and unnerving place, one far away from fairy tales—and perilously close to adulthood.
