Discover how Mount Tambora's catastrophic eruption plunged the world into darkness, altering the global climate and inspiring the likes of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. This remarkable story of disaster and survival is brought to life in a thrilling new illustrated novel from the award-winning author of The Mona Lisa Vanishes. The world was upside-down.

The land around Indonesia was a hellscape of fire and smoke. In the months and years that followed, the fallout--a cloud of impossibly fine ash-- spread through the atmosphere. It killed harvests on the other side of the world. It turned farmers into beggars and their children into orphans. It turned sunsets into molten nightmares. That same year, eighteen-year-old Mary Shelley fled England with poet Percy Shelley. While sheltering from the

靈異照片千萬不要仔細看，不然……你會無法全身而退！★☆照片×推理最強懸疑短篇衝擊之作☆★乍看之下，只是一張普通的照片。但越看……越覺得哪裡怪怪的！你，能看穿照片裡藏著的真相嗎？街角的便利商店、夏日祭典的人群、遊樂園裡的歡樂身影，看起來再尋常不過。但當你讀了與照片有關的故事之後，那些原本被忽略的細節，開始一一浮現。▲構圖是不是怪怪的？▲這個人，真的應該出現在這裡嗎？▲拍照的時間與場景，是否哪裡對不上？本書正是從這樣的「微小違和感」出發，邀請讀者重新審視照片，也重新思考――我們以為看見的，真的就是全部的真相嗎？★☆以「照片」為線索，展開九則懸疑短篇☆★全書收錄九篇短篇故事，每一篇都從一張照片開始。照片不只是紀錄，而是通往真相的入口。故事包括──․從照片中解讀線索的「隱藏訊息」被綁架的朋友留下的求救暗號，就藏在一張看似平凡的影像裡。․報酬異常優渥的「非法打工」原本只是丟棄行李箱內容物的工作，卻一步步滑向無法回頭的黑暗。․遊樂園裡不該存在的「布偶裝」快樂合照中，出現了不屬於這個地方的身影，讓回憶瞬間變質……每一則故事都在問同一個問題：照片裡，究竟哪裡怪怪的？★☆恐怖，來自熟悉的日常☆★公園、超商、家庭餐廳、廟會、遊樂園，這些都是我們再熟悉不過的場景。也正因如此，當照片裡出現：不該出現的人、不合理的拍攝角度、無法解釋的時間落差，那種不安感才會格外真實。恐怖不是突然出現，而是在你意識到之前，早已存在畫面之中。這不是靠血腥取勝的故事，而是讓人忍不住回頭多看一眼、心裡一沉的「日常系懸疑」。★☆輕巧好讀，卻後勁十足☆★本書採短篇集形式，節奏明快、篇幅精煉，可以一次讀完一篇，也很容易一篇接著一篇停不下來。結合「解謎 × 懸疑 × 微恐怖」的推理小品，讓你在閱讀過程中不斷思考其中的疑點，而闔上書後，世界看起來好像有點不一樣──這是一本會讓你開始懷疑照片，也懷疑日常的作品。◆讀者疑神疑鬼推薦我平常不太敢看恐怖小說，但這本不靠血腥嚇人，而是運用細節設計和心理效果製造懸疑感，反而更耐看，也更讓人起雞皮疙瘩。──Paul（大學生）一開始真的只是覺得「照片很普通」，但越讀越不對勁。不是突然嚇人，而是那種慢慢爬上來的不安感，讓我看完之後忍不住回去翻前面的照片，重新對照一次。──Lisa（上班族）很喜歡這本書會一直問讀者：「你看得出來哪裡怪怪的嗎？」不是被動讀故事，而是跟著一起推理。每一篇都像在玩一個
