The debut novel by Elizabeth Knox. After Z-Hour was acclaimed by reviewers including Margaret Mahy and Keri Hulme, and won the PEN Award for Best First Book of Prose.

Stranded by a South Island storm, six people usurp the stillness of an old house. As they tell the fragments of their story, a seventh voice responds: a young New Zealand serviceman who died in 1920 soon after his return from France. As the storm deepens, the hauntings of the mind and the hauntings of the house become one.

Do you not love stories told in the dark? And aren’t some of them, the worked-on, crafty ones, even better in the light of the reading lamp? –Keri Hulme, Evening Post
