2021br. Cornovaglia, Inghilterra, fine dell'anno 1972. Una barca approda al faro dello Scoglio della Fanciulla, un isolotto remoto a miglia di distanza dalla costa, per dare il cambio ai custodi. Il primo guardiano Arthur Black, il primo assistente William "Bill" Walker e il secondo assistente Vincent Bourne sono svaniti nel nulla. La porta d'ingresso del faro è chiusa dall'interno. Gli orologi in soggiorno e in cucina sono fermi alle 8,45. La tavola è preparata per un pasto che non è mai stato consumato. E la torre è vuota. Il registro meteorologico del capo dei guardiani descrive una tempesta che infuria intorno all'isola, ma il cielo è stato sereno per tutta la settimana. Cos'è successo ai tre uomini? Il mare agitato sussurra i loro nomi. La marea si muove, annegando i fantasmi. E fuori dalle onde, come un dito di luce, la torre graffiata dal sale si erge solitaria e magnifica. I loro segreti potranno mai essere recuperati dalle onde? Vent'anni dopo, le donne dei tre guardiani stanno ancora cercando di andare avanti, anche se senza risposte. Helen, Jenny e Michelle avrebbero dovuto essere unite dalla tragedia comune, che invece le ha separate. Fino a quando, un giorno, uno scrittore le contatta: vuole scrivere un libro su quel mistero irrisolto e dare loro la possibilità di raccontare la propria versione della storia. Ma solo affrontando le paure più oscure di tutti i protagonisti della vicenda la verità può iniziare a emergere. Attraverso i racconti delle tre donne e le ultime settimane degli uomini al faro, i segreti a lungo custoditi vengono alla luce e le verità si trasformano in bugie mentre il giovane scrittore cerca di capire cosa è successo, perché e a chi credere. Ispirato da eventi reali, "I guardiani del faro" è un romanzo ricco di suspense, una storia di isolamento e ossessione, di realtà e illusione, di amore e dolore, che esplora il modo in cui le nostre paure offuscano il confine tra il reale e l'immaginario.
2018brossura Dopo vent'anni da un omicidio si può pensare di averla fatta franca, ma cosa succederebbe se l'omicida fosse costretto a tornare sul luogo del delitto? Magdalina è una badante fuggita in Italia dalla Siberia dopo aver ucciso Feofan, il marito violento. Sono passati vent'anni e pensa di averla scampata, ma nel suo paese natale viene ritrovato un cadavere. Nessuno sa chi sia, solo la madre di Feofan è sicura si tratti di suo figlio e pretende di fare l'esame del DNA. Magdalina si trova di fronte a un bivio: nascondersi ancora o andare in Siberia a vedere per l'ultima volta la madre che proprio in quei giorni è stata colpita da un ictus? Ludo è un rampollo alcolizzato, incapace di vivere la sua vita a causa di una sensazione che lo turba da sempre: sentirsi estraneo nella propria famiglia. Un giorno trova alcuni documenti scritti in russo, con una sua foto da bambino e un indirizzo di Tobolsk, in Siberia. Scopre così che le persone che aveva pensato fossero i suoi genitori, in realtà non lo erano. Ludo e Magdalina decidono di partire insieme per la Siberia. Lei per vedere la madre morente, lui per ritrovare i pezzi del suo passato. La posta in gioco è la loro stessa sopravvivenza.
