From Publishers Weekly: Stark images propel this powerful tale about English photojournalist Alexandra Bridgman, on assignment in a remote French village where a recent landslide has claimed 15 lives. She meets Neville Johnson, an English boy living in the town who tried valiantly to save a deformed boy; now confined to a wheelchair, Neville is bound by a guilt that bewilders Alex.
