Die Zwillinge von Highgate

Elspeth was Robert's great love. Now she's buried in Highgate, London's romantic overgrown graveyard. But Elspeth seems more alive than ever, for memories are stronger than death. Robert smells her, senses her, speaks to her. It's as if she lives on, and as if her death is just a bad dream. All those who were close to her fall under her spell. Until her nieces, the twins Valentina and Julia, make a fatal bet with her. Against the backdrop of pulsating London, Audrey Niffenegger tells stirring tales, in delicate and sometimes dark tones, of the unquenchable longing to be forever close to the other. "The Twins of Highgate" is Audrey Niffenegger's second novel and is of even greater emotional intensity than her world bestseller "The Time Traveler's Wife".
