"The same evening Josh Underhill went missing, the black horse appeared on the hill above the house. Ella knows that words are powerful. So she should have known better than to utter a wish and a curse on the same day. Who is Gus, the boy with the impish grin, who seems to appear in answer to her wish? And what does the black horse want? When Ella finds that her grandmother's warnings of creatures that dwell in the lake are more than just stories, she and her pony Magpie are drawn into a dangerous, life-saving mission"--Amazon.com.
„Ein leises Geräusch, wie ein Rauschen im Laub an einem Herbstmorgen. Die Schmetterlinge erfüllten die Stille mit einem Klang. Das hätte er sich nie träumen lassen.“ Im brasilianischen Urwald sucht ein Engländer nach einem sagenumwobenen Schmetterling und entdeckt eine geheimnisvolle und fremde Welt, die ihm die Sprache raubt. Zurück in England, versucht seine Frau, sein Schweigen zu brechen. Eine Geschichte voller Zärtlichkeit und Leidenschaft, Schönheit und Gewalt in den Wäldern des Amazonas – und eine Prosa von leuchtender Klarheit wie in Jean Rhys’ Sargassomeer.
