Description
Adelle is convinced that there's a creepy face watching her from a mirror she inherited from her grandmother - a face that is always criticising her, and especially pointing out how fat she is. But Adelle is the very opposite of fat. Can friend Naomi help Adelle realize she is suffering from anorexia, and try to understand how the face in the mirror is only a symptom of the problem
Reviews
A powerful ghost story for our own time * Independent *
Gripping . . . Glover nicely layers the build-up of tension * Books for Keeps *
