Let the Right One in"Oskar is a twelve-year-old boy living with his mother on a housing estate. He dreams about his absent father, gets bullied at school, and wets himself when he's frightened. Eli is the young girl who move in next door. She doesn't go to school and never leaves the flat by day. She is a 200-year-old vampire, forever frozen in childhood, and condemned to live on a diet of fresh blood. In very different ways, they were both victims. Which is why, against the odds, they became friends. And how they came to depend on one another, for life itself."--Page 4 of cover |
