Twelve-year-old ConaLee and her mother, Eliza, who hasn't spoken in more than a year, arrive at the Trans-Allegh­eny Lunatic Asylum in West Virginia, delivered to the hospital's entrance by a war vet­eran who has forced himself into their lives. There, far from family, a beloved neighbour, and the mountain home they knew, they try to reclaim their lives.The twin horrors of war and race rise to the surface as we learn their history: their flight to the highest mountain ridges of western Virginia; the disappearance of ConaLee's father, who left for the war and never returned. Meanwhile in the asylum, they begin to find a new path. ConaLee pretends to be her mother's maid; Eliza responds slowly to treatment. They get swept up in the life of the facility - the mystery behind the man they call the Night Watch; the child called Weed; the fearsome woman who runs the kitchen; the remarkable doctor at the head of the institution.Epic, enthralling and meticulously crafted,and Night Watchand is a brilliant portrait of family endurance against all odds and a stunning chronicle of surviving war and its aftermath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jayne Anne Phillips","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44216132567100,"sku":"9780349727806","price":3415.5,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7706\/7836\/files\/9780349727806_201.jpg?v=1776761165","url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/night-watch","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
