The title story centres on a mysterious craftsman whose uncanny creations blur the boundary between the animate and inanimate, drawing readers into a world where the familiar becomes profoundly strange. With a tone that is measured and literary yet suffused with dread, Sarban's work stands alongside the finest of M.R. James and Algernon Blackwood as a masterpiece of understated horror.
