Summary:
"Dylan ha escapado ilesa de un horrible accidente ferroviario. Pero, en realidad, no es así. El paisaje sombrío que la rodea no es Escocia. Es un páramo donde merodean espectros en busca de almas humanas. Y el extraño que está esperándola no es un chico común y corriente. Tristan es un barquero, cuya tarea consiste en transportar su alma al más allá, un viaje que ya ha hecho miles de veces. Pero esta vez hay algo diferente. Indecisa entre el amor y el destino, Dylan comprende que no puede separarse de Tristan, pero tampoco puede quedarse con él. Tarde o temprano, inevitablemente, los espectros capturarían su alma y ella se perdería para siempre. ¿Podrá el verdadero amor vencer los límites de la muerte? El barquero de almas es una historia que nos hace pensar, un relato verdaderamente original de un amor que se niega a dejarse limitar por la muerte." -- amazon.com
Dylan has escaped a horrific train crash unscathed. Except she hasn't. The bleak landscape around her isn't Scotland. It's a wasteland haunted by wraiths searching for human souls. And the stranger waiting for her isn't an ordinary boy. Tristan is a Ferryman, tasked with transporting her soul safely to the afterlife, a journey he's made a thousand times before. Except this time, something's different. Torn between love and destiny, Dylan realises she can't let Tristan go, nor can she stay with him. Eventually, inevitably, the wraiths would capture her soul and she would be lost forever. Can true love overcome the boundaries of death? Ferryman is a thought-provoking and truly original story of a love that refuses to be limited by death.
