- The guest children : a novel / by Tarr, P. G.(Patrick G.),1970-author.;
"Not all hauntings are confined to houses. With the mounting terror of the German Blitz on London in 1940, thousands of British "Guest Children" are evacuated abroad to escape the bombing. Michael and Frances Hawksby are among them, shipped off to stay with relatives in Canada. Years later, as WW2 finally comes to an end, their surviving family members realize that no one has heard from them again. Randall Sturgess wanted to do his part in the war but was forced to stay home and look after his troubled and unstable younger brother, Edward. Impoverished, shamed as a coward, and running out of work options as veterans come home, Randall takes a job investigating the disappearance of the Hawksby children. Reluctantly leaving Edward behind, Randall follows the children's trail to the wilds of northern Ontario, where he finds an isolated and ramshackle resort called Glass Point Lodge. There, he discovers the secretive aunt and uncle who took in the young Hawksbys, along with their odd collection of seemingly permanent guests - none of whom seem willing to tell him the truth about the missing children. Plagued with vivid nightmares about the war, troubled by dark visions and a persistent feeling that he's being watched, Randall searches the imposing woods and lake for any trace of Michael and Frances. Certain something terrible has happened to them, Randall delves ever deeper into the mysteries of the lodge, its inhabitants, and the long-buried memories of his childhood - not realizing that the darkest secrets he unearths may be his own."--- Subjects: Historical fiction.; Ghost stories.; Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Ghosts; Investigations; Memory; Missing children; Resorts; Siblings; Secrecy;
