内容简介 The must-read new novel from Nikki Gemmell -- as provocative and as deeply felt as her international bestseller The Bride Stripped Bare. Three children wake up in a basement room. They have been drugged and taken from their beds in the middle of the night. Now they are here. Alone. Where are their parents? Who can they trust? The family has been betrayed to the government and Salt Cottage, their home on a cliff top above the ocean, is no longer safe. Their mother's scientific work has put them all in danger. To protect them, she must let them go. She must put her faith in an old family friend -- and in her children's own resilience and courage. Searing, provocative and unputdownable, The Book of Rapture challenges our beliefs about science, about children, and about trust. As passionate as The Bride Stripped Bare, it will compel, seduce and haunt you.
作者简介 Nikki Gemmell is the author of four novels, including the international best-seller 'The Bride Stripped Bare'. She lives in London with her family.
