false 4835296 2 How did it all begin? I suppose it would be the day I rescued a new-born baby from a poisonous snake, heard the news of my mother's death and encountered my first ghost ...Veterinary surgeon Clara Benning is young and intelligent, but practically a recluse. Disfigured by a childhood accident, she lives alone and shies away from human contact wherever possible. But when a man dies following a supposed snake bite, the victim's post mortem shows a higher concentration of venom than could ever be found in a single snake. Assisted by her softly spoken neighbour and an eccentric reptile expert, Clara unravels sinister links to a barbaric ancient ritual, an abandoned house and a 50-year-old tragedy that left the survivors fiercely secretive. Then the village's inventive attacker strikes again, and Clara's own solitary existence is brutally invaded. For someone the truth must remain buried in the past ...even if they have to kill to keep it there. 4900490 book 23 4 2009 Awakening total:58|5:12|4:33|3:12|2:1|1:0| 58 230 147 22 4835296 0593059239 9780593059234 53 20 3.97 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4835296.Awakening 3 0 false Wed Nov 25 16:31:52 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 25 16:52:38 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4835296 0593059239 9780593059234 53 20 3.97 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4835296.Awakening 3 0 false Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 21:10:13 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 21:12:28 -0700 2009
