Another brilliant, original and moving novel from the author of
The Time Traveler's Wife.
Julia and Valentina Poole are normal American teenagers - normal,
at least, for identical "mirror" twins who have no interest in
college or jobs or possibly anything outside their cozy suburban
home. But everything changes when they receive notice that an aunt
whom they didn't know existed has died and left them her amazing
flat in a building by Highgate Cemetery in London. They feel that
at last their own lives can begin … but they have no idea that
they've been summoned into a tangle of fraying lives, from the
OCD-suffering crossword setter who lives above them to their aunt's
mysterious and elusive lover who lives below them, and even to
their aunt herself, who never got over her estrangement from the
mother of the girls - her own twin - and who can't even seem to
quite leave her flat….
