Krátky popis
A modern re-imagining of the Gothic Classic Northanger Abbey by the
bestselling crime author Val McDermid. The second book in The
Austen Project. Seventeen-year-old Catherine ‘Cat’ Morland has led
a sheltered existence in rural Dorset, a life entirely bereft of
the romance and excitement for which she yearns. So when Cat’s
wealthy neighbours, the Allens, invite her to Edinburgh Festival,
she is sure adventure beckons. Edinburgh initially offers no such
thrills: Susie Allen is obsessed by shopping, Andrew Allen by the
Fringe. A Highland Dance class, though, brings Cat a new
acquaintance: Henry Tilney, a pale, dark-eyed gentleman whose
family home, Northanger Abbey, sounds perfectly thrilling. And an
introduction to Bella Thorpe, who shares her passion for
supernatural novels, provides Cat with a like-minded friend. But
with Bella comes her brother John, an obnoxious banker whose vulgar
behaviour seems designed to thwart Cat’s growing fondness for
Henry. Happily, rescue is at hand. The rigidly formal General
Tilney invites her to stay at Northanger with son Henry and
daughter Eleanor. Cat’s imagination runs riot: an ancient abbey,
crumbling turrets, secret chambers, ghosts…and Henry! What could be
more deliciously romantic? But Cat gets far more than she bargained
for in this isolated corner of the Scottish Borders. The real world
outside the pages of a novel proves to be altogether more
disturbing than the imagined world within…
