The White Forest by Adam McOmber
“It was in the flow of that great primordium that I saw something astonishing – a final vision: a vast and wild image of myself.”
In The White Forest, Adam McOmber attempts a Victorian-style thriller, a spooky gothic in the style of Henry James. The story follows three young people on London’s Hampstead Heath, during or shortly after the Crimean War. Nathan Ashe is a young aristocrat, a gentleman, always curious, whose seeking has become more desperate since he has returned from the war.
