“Both a great ghost story and a classic doppelgänger narrative, this lovely novella concerns a New York native who returns to the city of his birth after decades in London. What might have he become had he stayed in his vulgar homeland? A night spent wandering the empty rooms of the mansion where he grew up provides a chilling revelation.”↗
