[DIFFERENT COVER]
From the back cover:
" 'She is here, the lady. She wants to be flowers, but you make her owls. Always it is owls, always we are destroyed.'
It all begins with the scratching in the ceiling. From the moment Alison discovers the dinner service in the attic, with its curious pattern of floral owls, a chain of events is set in progress that is to affect everybody's lives.
Something old and powerful is stirring in the Welsh valley. Alison, Roger and Gwyn can all feel it, but only Huw seems to understand it. Inevitably, forces from the past overwhelm the present. Will any of them be strong enough to forestall the fate that threatens?"

Since this has been kicking around for a while now, in order to free up some space on the Brigantes OBCZ Bookshelf, I thought I'd move it on to the public bookshelf in the lounge area of Holgate at York St. John University - where hopefully it'll find a new reader...
