What forced me, who was wandering in a huge bookstore to find an English book to be suitable for me as both a teaching material and a stuff that gives me a pleasure, to choose this book was just a line of the praise given by 'Stephen King' which is "My all-time favourite. Astonishing.". Since I've known his reputation for a long time as one of the greatest writer in 'HORROR' genre, -Although, I've never read any of his book- I was able to get my hands on it without hesitation.The story of this book is as follows.
'Engrid Levin-Hill', who is thirteen years old girl, a striker of the team of the school she's been going to, an actress who has outstanding talent for acting and a 'SHOLOCKIAN' -the followers of 'Sherlock Holmes'- besides, has been implicated in a murder case of the woman who lives in the same town she's been living and looks like a bit out of her mind.
The problem with which made her get into trouble is a pair of shoes she has left at the victim's house before the murder happened, which could cause a serious misunderstanding by the police. After all, she decided to search the women's mysterious death by her own and during the investigation, she happened to know about the town's gloomy history of the past that would force the tracking down into a huge maze and 'Engrid' herself as well, like the very title of this book.
