Review:

A great summer read, I would highly recommend it if you enjoy tense, romantic thrillers, and have an interest in the Victorian art world. * Sixty Surfers * Captured in every character and locale is Fiorato's artistic flourish: a true chiaroscurist, she renders her models not only with radiant colour but rich meaning -- To the End of Her Days Jack the Ripper meets Pygmalion... very creepy * Best * 'An exquisite read...will keep you engaged from the first page to the last. This is historical fiction at its best.' -- Book Literarti Reviews A beautifully-crafted novel..., by turns opulent and visceral. The encroaching sense of menace was perfectly paced, as was the slow reveal of the shocking truth underpinning the story. I adored it. -- Clare Harvey, author of The Gunner Girl 'A rich jewel of a story, full of colour, desire and danger. I was transfixed.' -- Julie Cohen, author of Dear Thing Marina Fiorato's latest novel will delight her ever increasing number of fans -- Dilly Court, bestselling author A thrilling tale of love, lust, and revenge * The Lady * A captivating Gothic blend of mystery and romance * Sunday Mirror *
