Review
Pitch-perfect . . . This intoxicating and disturbing novel is properly thrilling and extraordinarily well-written * Independent on Sunday * A dark story of murder and obsession * Elle * An eerie murder mystery set in the corrupt heart of Victorian London * Marie Claire Good Book Club pick * Part-bodice-ripper, part-slasher, the book's elaborate plot moves along at a brisk clip with a nod to the likes of Sarah Waters and Peter Ackroyd * Daily Mail * A sure-footed evocation of seamy Victorian London * The Sunday Telegraph * A sinister picture of a country, and protagonist, on the brink of hysteria * Psychologies * As crowded with sensation as a Victorian parlour with furniture * The Scotsman * A spider's web of a plot and a spine-tingling atmosphere of menace and suspense * The Times * Mesmerising, elegant and compelling * The Lady *
