A tale of supernatural possession, The Return tells the story of Arthur Lawford, who falls asleep by the grave of a Huguenot adventurer who died by his own hand, and awakens to find himself physically transformed into that man. Author Walter de la Mare’s rich imagery and superb story-telling skills come alive through the reactions of Lawford’s friends and family, and the truths that are revealed.
