It all begins with an egg . . .
With a hungry child who risks her life for an omelette for tea - and finds a miracle.
With thieves committing crimes against nature on the wild cliffs of Yorkshire.
With a marvel that becomes a mystery . . .
and then a myth.
And 100 years later it begins again. . .
With a strange robbery at a remote Welsh cottage.
With two friends thrust from their gaming chairs into a real-life quest.
And with dangerous men who will stop at nothing to get what they want.
It all begins with an egg.
But where will it end?

An extraordinary novel. Belinda Bauer writes so beautifully. There's a deceptive simplicity to The Impossible Thing that packs a real punch, and the characters and their stories have really stayed with me. Highly recommended!
