Lily's introduction to the mysterious violin is both intriguing and unnerving, with vivid descriptions that create an immediate sense of unease: "The clock on Lily's wall struck twilight with a dull, insistent knock… Shadows from the lamps pressed in close as she undid the fragile string."

The novel's climax, where Lily must confront the instrument's malevolent influence in an abandoned concert hall, is a thrilling confrontation of good and evil.
