The Dark Night: Or, The Fear of Man Bringeth a Snare
The Dark Night: Or, The Fear of Man Bringeth a Snare
The fear of man brings a snare. Osric Dennison learns this the hard way on a spring morning in Boonville, when his love of adventure persuades his more cautious twin sister Elsie to skip school and watch a funeral. But the day takes a dark turn when Osric's cowardice leaves his friend Christopher locked in a burial vault, and a storm is fast approaching. Now Osric must find the courage he lacked before, or live with the consequences of his choices forever. Guernsey writes genuine suspense: a child trapped in darkness while thunder rolls closer, a brother forced to choose between his fears and doing what's right. The moral weight never feels heavy-handed because the stakes are real. This is adventure fiction with teeth, the kind that made Victorian children sit up straight and think about what they owed to their friends.
