Claire North a écrit son premier roman alors qu'elle n'avait que quatorze ans. Comparée depuis à Terry Pratchett et Philip Pullman, la jeune femme a publié de nombreux ouvrages de genres différents. Londonienne de souche, Claire se décrit comme fan de grandes villes, de magie urbaine, de nourriture thaï et de graffitis. Dans sa trilogie « Le Chant des déesses », elle met en scène l'histoire de Pénélope, la célèbre femme d'Ulysse, comme elle n'a jamais été contée auparavant.
'MESMERIC, TERRIFYING AND WONDERFUL' M. R. Carey, author of The Girl With All the Gifts
'I was cursed in Natal, in 1884. Cursed by truth and by blood. The shadow took to me, and we have been together since.'
From the bestselling and award-winning author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August and 84K comes a powerful new novel about a young man haunted by a ghost from his past, and by the dark crimes committed in the name of the British empire.
