IN THE SHADOW OF SPINDRIFT HOUSE

Book ID/图书代码： 02173019C00008

English Summary/英文概要： "Stranger Things fans are likely to be engrossed by Grant’s seductive account of four teens who band together to solve paranormal mysteries. Harlowe, whose parents were killed by a cult when she was four, became friendly with schoolmates Kevin, Andy, and Addison in third grade, and the quartet has spent nine years hunting mummies and explaining why some ducks floated in midair. With high school ending, their fellowship faces its end, too, until Harlowe proposes that they travel to Maine to seek a $3.5 million reward. That bounty will go to anyone who enters a haunted house long enough to track down the original deed and resolve a dispute among three families as to its current ownership—a mission that has already left several people dead. Despite a formulaic setup, Grant makes the horrors of Spindrift House palpable. Gradually readers come to understand the implications of the entrancing opening passage about humanity’s imposition of the “mathematical aberration of the straight line” on nature. This strong standalone from Grant will satisfy fans of classic tales of horror and the eldritch." -Publishers Weekly

Chinese Summary/中文概要： “《怪奇物语》的粉丝们应该会被格兰特的故事所吸引，他讲述了了四个青少年联合起来解决超自然之谜的故事。四岁时，哈洛的父母被异教徒杀害。三年级时，她和同学凯文、安迪和艾迪生成了好朋友，这个四人小组花了九年时间寻找木乃伊，并解释为什么有些鸭子会在半空中漂浮。随着高中的结束，他们的友谊也面临着终结，直到哈洛提议他们去缅因州谋取350万美元的奖金。只要有人能进入鬼屋，在里面待得足够久，并且能够找到原始契约，从而解决一场三个家庭对于归属权的争夺，那么这个人就能获得这笔奖金。不过，这一任务已经让几个人丧命了。尽管有一个程序化的设置，格兰特笔下的浪花屋依然异常恐怖。渐渐地，读者开始理解开篇文章的蕴藏的含义，它讲述了人类将“直线的数学偏差”强加于自然。这部来自格兰特的独立电影必将另喜爱经典恐怖故事的粉丝们满意。“——《出版人周刊》（XMM）
